Answer:

A. 5541.8 cm²

Explanation:

The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula
\boxed{\bold{SA = 4\pi r^2}}, where r is the radius of the sphere.

In this case, we know that the diameter ips 42 centimeters. This means that the radius is
r = (d)/(2) = (42)/(2) = 21 centimeters.

Substituting this into the formula, we get:


SA = 4\pi (21)^2 = 1764\pi

To the nearest tenth, this is 5541.8 square centimeters. Therefore, the surface area of the sphere is 5541.8 square centimeters.
