r^2
Given that the surface area of the basketball is 400 pi square inches, we can plug this into the formula and solve for the radius:
400 pi = 4 pi r^2
Dividing both sides by 4 pi:
100 = r^2
Taking the square root of both sides to solve for r:
r = 10 inches
Therefore, the radius of the basketball is 10 inches.
The surface area of a spherical basketball is 400 pi square inches .
What is the radius of the basketball?
