Solution
The ratio of total surface area of a solid hemisphere to the square of its radius is 3π : 1.
Explanation:
Curved Surface Area = 2πr2
Curved Surface Area of Hemisphere = `(1/2) 4πr^2 = 2πr^2`
Base Area of a hemisphere = πr2
Total Surface Area of Hemisphere = 2πr2 + πr2 = 3πr2
Divide the total surface area by r2
`= (3pir^2)/r^2`
`= 3pi`
Therefore, the ratio of the total surface area of a solid hemisphere to the square of its radius is 3π : 1
