The surface area of a solid sphere is 120 square centimetres. If it is cut into two halves, what would be the surface area 0f each hemisphere?

Answer»

Surface area of the solid sphere = \(4\pi r^2\)

\(4\pi r^2=120\)

\(r^2=\frac{120}{4\pi}=\frac{30}{\pi}\)

Surface area of one hemisphere = 3πr2

3πr2 = 3 π × \(\frac{30}{\pi}\) = 90 cm2
