Find the surface area of a sphere with a radius of 6 meters. Leave your answer in terms of pi.
a.200 pi meters squared
b. 48 pi meters squared
c.144 pi meters squared
d.576 pi meters sqaured
The formula for the surface area of a sphere with radius r is given by:
A = 4πr^2
Substituting r = 6 meters into the formula, we get:
A = 4π(6)^2
A = 4π(36)
A = 144π
Therefore, the surface area of the sphere is 144π meters squared. Hence, the correct answer is c. 144π meters squared.
