1 answer

To solve for \( r^2 \), you start with the equation:

\[ 32\pi = 8\pi \cdot r^2 \]

Now, you need to divide both sides by \( 8\pi \):

\[ \frac{32\pi}{8\pi} = r^2 \]

The \( \pi \) in the numerator and denominator cancels out:

\[ \frac{32}{8} = r^2 \]

Calculating the left side gives:

\[ 4 = r^2 \]

Now, to find \( r \), take the square root of both sides:

\[ r = \sqrt{4} \]

Thus,

\[ r = 2 \]

So, the final answer is:

\[ r = 2 \]
