A solid hemisphere has a radius of 7 cm. Find the total surface area.

  • A.
    400 cm2
  • B.
    462 cm2
  • C.
    66 cm2
  • D.
    308 cm2
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

Total surface area of hemisphere = half of TSA of sphere + circumference of circle

= (2pi r^{2} + pi r^{2} = 3pi r^{2})

= ( 3 times frac{22}{7} times 7^{2} = 462cm^{2})
