The curved surface area of a hemisphere is 110.88sq cm and its volume is 155.232cubic cm. Find its radius.

  1. A
    8.4 cm
  2. B
    1.4 cm
  3. C
    4.2 cm
  4. D
    2.1 cm

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let the radius of the hemisphere be r.
The formula for the curved surface area (CSA) of a hemisphere is:

CSA=2πr
2
=110.88
The formula for the volume (V) of a hemisphere is:

Volume=
3

=155.232
Dividing the volume by the curved surface area:

CSA
Volume

=
2πr
