Question

An igloo can be modeled as a hemisphere. Its radius measures 4.4 m. Find its volume in cubic meters. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer: 40.547 meters cubed

Explanation:

Hi there,

The sphere volume equation is:

`V=(4)/(3) \pi r^2`

All you have to do is plug in the radius inside the formula and you should get 81.095 meters cubed. We know that a hemisphere is half the size of a sphere, and so you should divide your answer by 2, getting 40.547 meters cubed.

Hope this helps!
