Example 1 Find the surface area of the sphere. Round to the nearest tenth. A. 462.7 in2 B. 473.1 in2 C. 482.6 in2 D. 490.9 in2
Use Great Circles to Find Surface Area Example 2A A. Find the surface area of the hemisphere. Find half the area of a sphere with the radius of 3.7 millimeters. Then add the area of the great circle.
Use Great Circles to Find Surface Area Example 2B B. Find the surface area of a sphere if the circumference of the great circle is 10 feet. First, find the radius. The circumference of a great circle is 2r. So, 2r = 10 or r = 5.
Use Great Circles to Find Surface Area Example 2C C. Find the surface area of a sphere if the area of the great circle is approximately 220 square meters. First, find the radius. The area of a great circle is r2. So, r2 = 220 or r≈ 8.4.
