surface area = 4πr²

you have the diameter, you find r with diameter :2

4π (68:2)²=

4π34²=

Answer:

Surface area of tennis ball : 4624 π mm².

Explanation:

Given : The diameter of a tennis ball is 68 mm.

To find : find its surface area. express your answer in terms of π.

Solution : We have given that diameter of a tennis ball is 68 mm.

Radius :
(Diameter)/(2)

Radius =
(68)/(2).

Radius = 34 mm .

Surface area of sphere : 4 * π *
radius^(2).

Surface area of tennis ball : 4 * π *
radius^(2).

Surface area of tennis ball : 4 * π *
(34)^(2).

Surface area of tennis ball : 4624 π mm².

Therefore, Surface area of tennis ball : 4624 π mm².
