Question Find the surface area of a sphere with a diameter of 40 inches. Leave your answer in terms of pi.(1 point) The surface area is blank inches to the power of 2

1 answer

The formula for the surface area of a sphere is A = 4πr^2, where r is the radius of the sphere.

Since the diameter is 40 inches, the radius is half of the diameter, which is 20 inches.

Substitute the radius into the formula:

A = 4π(20)^2
A = 4π(400)
A = 1600π

Therefore, the surface area of the sphere is 1600π square inches.
