If the total surface area of a sphere of radius r cm is equal to the total surface area of a cube of side 5 cm, which of the following is true?
Answer
The correct answer is A: r < s. Setting 4πr² = 6s² gives r² = 3s²/(2π). With s=5, r=√3 ≈ 1.73, whereas s=5.
- A.r < s✓ Correct
- B.r = s
- C.r > s
- D.r ≥ s
Setting 4πr² = 6s² gives r² = 3s²/(2π). With s=5, r=√3 ≈ 1.73, whereas s=5. Since √3 < √6.28 < 5, we get r < s.
