Question 8 Mensuration Exercise 17.3

Find the diameter of a sphere whose surface area is 154 cm2 .

Answer:

Solution:

The curved surface area is equal to the whole area of the sphere since the sphere is completely curved.

Given surface area of the sphere = 154 cm2

Surface area of the sphere = 4π r2

4×(22/7)×r2 = 154

r2 = 154 ×7/(22×4)

= 49/4

r = √49/2

Diameter = 2×r = 2×√49/2 = √49 = 7

Hence the diameter of the sphere is 7 cm. M L Aggarwal - Understanding ICSE Mathematics - Class 10 chapter Mensuration Question 8 Solution image
