HELLO!
In cube are inscribed cylinder and sphere.Ratio of surface area of cube and surface area of cube is question??
Please help!!
The result should be (2/3)!!
Thanks!
Ratio of surface area of cube and surface area of cube is 1:1 because both entities are same :wink:
But I feel you are asking ration of surface area SA() of the sphere and cylinder
Let side of cube = a
radius of the cylinder and sphere r= a/2
SA(Sphere) = 4*pi*r^2
SA(Cylinder) = 2*pi*r^2 + 2*pi*r*h.
Here h is the height of the cylinder = side of the cube = a,
r is the radius of the sphere and cylinder's top = a/2
SA(Sphere)/SA(Cylinder)
= 4pi(a/2)^2 / [2pi(a/2)^2 + 2pi(a/2)*a]
= 2/3
Thanks so much!
I wright it wrong thanks for understanding the right meaning
