if its diameter is 34, then its radius is half that or 17.
[tex]\textit{surface area of a sphere}\\\\ SA=4\pi r^2 ~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=17 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} SA=4\pi (17)^2\implies SA=1156\pi \\\\\\ SA\approx 3631.68~m^2 \end{array}[/tex]
Answer:
b. 3631.68 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a sphere can be found using the formula ...
A = πd² . . . . where d is the diameter
__
For a diameter of 34 m, the area is ...
A = π(34 m)² = 1156π m² ≈ 3631.68 m²
