The radius of sphere is r cm. It is divided into two equal parts. Find the whole surface of two parts.
Given, the radius of the sphere =r cm.
If the sphere is divided into two equal parts, then the resulting parts are hemispheres with radius =r cm.
Therefore, the total surface area of each hemisphere=3πr2 cm2
Then, the total surface area of both hemisphere =2×3πr2
=6πr2 cm2
