a right circular cylinder just encloses a sphere of radius r find
1.surface area of the sphere,
2.curved surface area of the cylinder,
3.ratio of the area obtained in 1 n 2

Dear Student, 

(i) Surface area of sphere = 4πr 2

(ii) Height of cylinder = r + r = 2r

Radius of cylinder = r

CSA of cylinder = 2πrh

= 2πr (2r)

= 4πr 2

(iii)

Therefore, the ratio between these two surface areas is 1:1.
Regards
