Therefore, to find the area of a hemisphere we need to calculate the area of half of a sphere with the same radius and add the area of a great circle.
Surface Area of a Hemisphere [0.8em]
A=1/2(4Ï€ r^2)+Ï€ r^2
Let's now consider the given diagram.
We know that r is equal to 1.5 centimeters. We can substitute this value in the formula for the area of a hemisphere and simplify.
