Surface Area and Volume of a Sphere
Does sphere comes under two-dimensional geometry or three-dimensional geometry?
Sphere comes under the category of three-dimensional geometry.
If we are given the radius of a sphere, then find the diameter of the sphere.
To find the diameter of a sphere, we use the formula,
Diameter = 2 × Radius of Sphere
Can we find radius of sphere if we are given the surface area value of the sphere?
Yes, we can calculate the radius of sphere if the surface area of the sphere is given.
Find surface area of solid hemissphere which have radius = 4 cm.
To calculate the surface area of a solid hemisphere we use the formula, Surface Area = 3πr2
Surface Area = 3 × 3.14 × 4 × 4
= 48 × 3.14 = 150.72 cm2
Find radius of a sphere whose surface area is 154 cm2.
To calculate radius of a sphere we use the formula, Surface Area = 4πr2
⇒ 154 = 4 × 3.14 × r × r
⇒ r×r = 12.26
⇒ r = 3.5 cm
