Lesson 9-4: Spheres Lesson 9-4 Spheres Spheres – special segments lines Surface Area Volume of Sphere Great Circle Hemisphere Surface Area Volume of Hemisphere * * Spheres A sphere is formed by revolving a circle about its diameter. In space, the set of all points that are a given distance from a given point, called the center. Definition: Radius: A segment whose endpoints are the center of the sphere and a point on the sphere. Chord: A segment whose endpoints are on the sphere. Diameter: A chord that contains the sphere’s center. Tangent: A line that intersects the sphere in exactly one point. Radius Chord Diameter Tangent Volume (V) = Surface Area (SA) = 4 π r2 r Example: Find the surface area and volume of the sphere. 12 cm Great Circle: For a given sphere, the intersection of the sphere and a plane that contains the center of the sphere. Hemisphere: One of the two parts into which a great circle separates a given sphere. Great Circle Hemisphere Find the surface area and volume of the following solid (Hemisphere). 10 cm
