Question

Describe a circular cross-section of a sphere that does not pass through the center.

Select All that apply
The radius will be equal to the radius of the sphere
The radius will be larger than the radius of the sphere
The radius will be smaller than the radius of the sphere
The area of the circular cross-section will be 2piR squared
The sphere will be divided into 2 equal sections
The volume of the 2pieces of the sphere will not be the same

Answer 1

The radius will be smaller than the radius of the sphere

The volume of the 2 pieces of the sphere will not be the same

Explanation:

Answer 2

The radius will be smaller than the radius of the sphere

The volume of the 2 pieces of the sphere will not be the same

Explanation:

A sphere is a three-dimensional geometrical figure. It is a set of all points equidistant from a fixed point in space.

A circle is a two-dimensional figure. It is the locus of all points equidistant from a central point.

For a circular cross-section of a sphere that does not pass through the center,

the radius will be smaller than the radius of the sphere, the volume of the 2 pieces of the sphere will not be the same
