Find the surface area of a sphere with a radius of 3.6ft. Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary
The formula for calculating the surface area of a sphere is given by: A = 4πr^2, where r is the radius of the sphere.
Substituting the given radius, r = 3.6 ft, and using the approximation π = 3.14, we can calculate the surface area:
A = 4 * 3.14 * (3.6 ft)^2
A = 4 * 3.14 * 12.96 ft^2
A = 162.624 ft^2
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the surface area of the sphere is approximately 162.62 ft^2.
