  1. need a figure to go on ?

    (next time do your own homework)


  2. A = pi x r^2 for area of a flat 2 dimensional circle,

    SA = 4/3 x pi x r^2  for surface area of a 3d sphere,

    where pi = 3.14 ... r = radius ... A = area ... SA = surface area

    To find the radius when given area:

    r = sqrt(A/pi)

    r = sqrt((4SA)/(3p)i)

    where sqrt is the square root sign

  3. Many of the answers given here are incorrect because some people seem to have confused the equations for the volume and the surface area of a sphere. I will first give the answer for a circle (two dimensional) and secondly for a sphere (three dimensional).

    circle

    A= pi.r.r  or  A=pi.r^2

    r=sqrt(A/pi)

    =====================================

    sphere

    A=4.pi.r^2

    r=sqrt(A/(4.pi))

    but note that for a sphere, volume=(4.pi.r^3)/3 which is what some people used as the equation for the area of a sphere, but this is for the volume, not the surface area.

    Hope this helps...

  4. ur ques seems not complete my dear...

    anyways,hope u know this--

    area of circle=pi*r*r

    pi=22/7 or 3.14

    e.g if area =36cm^2

    36=22/7*r^2

    36/3.14=r^2

    r^2=11.46

    r=3.38cm

  5. ... of what?

    a circle? a cylinder?

    a 3rd degree surface integral?
