A solid sphere is cut into two hemisphere. The ratio of the surface areas of sphere to that of two hemisphere taken together, is:
(3)
Let r be the radius of sphere.
Surface area of sphere=4πr2Total surface area of each hemisphere =Curved surface area=2πr2
Basearea=πr2Total=2πr2+πr2=3πr2So for two hemispheres:
3πr2+3πr2=6πr2Required ratio:=4πr23πr2+3πr2=4πr26πr2=46=23
