  1. EXPLANATION.

    Spherical solid ball of radius = 8 mm.

    It is divided into 8 equal parts by cutting it 4 times longitudinally.

    As we know that,

    Surface area of each pieces = TSA/8 + Area of circle.

    As we know that,

    Formula of :

    Total surface area = 4πr².

    Area of circle = πr².

    Surface area of each pieces = 4πr²/8 + πr².

    Surface area of each pieces = πr²/2 + πr².

    Surface area of each pieces = πr² + 2πr²/2.

    Surface area of each pieces = 3πr²/2.

    Put the value in the equation, we get.

    Surface area of each pieces = 3/2 x (22/7) x 8 x 8.

    Surface area of each pieces = 4224/14.

    Surface area of each pieces = 301.71 mm².

  2. ✩ Correct Question :

    • A spherical solid ball of radius 8 mm is to be divided into eight equal parts by cutting it four times longitudinally along the same axis. Find the surface area of each of the final pieces thus obtained (in mm^2) ?(where pi= 22/7)

    ✩ Required Solution:

    • ➸ Having one curved surface and two plane surfaces in each identical part ,
    • ➸ Angle between the plane surfaces is 45°

    ✰ Value given to us :

    • ➸ Radio of ball (r) = 8mm

    ✩ According to question :

    • ➸ Total surface area of one part = (1/8) of curved surface area of sphere + 2×Area of semi-circle.
    • ➸ (1/8) × 4πr² + 2×(1/2 × πr²)mm²
    • ➸ (1/2) × πr²+ πr²mm²
    • ➸ (3/2) × πr² mm²

    ✩ Putting. r = 8

    • ➸ (3/2)×π×(8)². mm²
    • ➸ 96 × 22/7 mm²

    ➸ ✰ 301.7 mm² (Answer ) ✰
