Answer:

They are the same

Explanation:

LA cyl =


2\pi \: rh

SA sphere =


4\pi {r}^(2)

If the sphere is inscribed in the cylinder, they have the same radius. The height of the cylinder is the diameter (Or 2× radius) of the sphere.

If you substitute 2r for h, then both formulas are


4\pi{r}^(2)
