\begin{matrix} r = & 12 \end{matrix}

$\begin{array}{r} r = & 12 \end{array}$

Step 1

The surface area of a sphere is equal to

4

$4$ times Pi

π

$π$ times the radius squared.

4 π \cdot {(r a d i u s)}^{2}

$4 π \cdot {(r a d i u s)}^{2}$

Step 2

Substitute the value of the radius

r = 12

$r = 12$ into the formula to find the surface area of the sphere. Pi

π

$π$ is approximately equal to

3.14

$3.14$ .

4 \cdot π \cdot 12^{2}

$4 \cdot π \cdot 12^{2}$

Step 3

Raise

12

$12$ to the power of

2

$2$ .

4 π \cdot 144

$4 π \cdot 144$

Step 4

Multiply

144

$144$ by

4

$4$ .

576 π

$576 π$

Step 5

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

576 π

$576 π$
