Does a sphere have lateral area?

It is incorrect to say that sphere has lateral area. First sphere do not have sides like other geometric figure. In fact a line or plane can intersect the surface of a sphere in just one point. Sphere has no lateral side. It is enough to say surface area of sphere than lateral surface area of the sphere.

The question is meaningless. A square is a plane figure which has "area" and not "volume" as in a sphere..


Are surface area and area different?

Surface area concerns a 3-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere. Area concerns a 2-dimensional figure such as a square or circle.


How do you figure the surface area of a dome?

A perfect dome (1/2 of a sphere) has a surface area of 2piR2. This is because a sphere's surface area is 4piR2, and dividing that by 2 would simplify to 2piR2.


Is a sphere a perfect circle?

no, it is sphere is not a perfect circle. because sphere is 3dimensional figure and circle is 2 dimensional figure


What is a round solid figure in which any point on its surface is the same distance from its center an area of interest?

It is a sphere


How do you figure out surface area for half sphere?

To do this question, we have to ask ourself, what formula do you use to find the surface area of a sphere. The answer should be known to you, but it is 4πr2. Since we know how to find the surface area for a full sphere, then finding the surface for a half sphere is just half the job. You use the formula for the full sphere 4πr2, and divide it by 2... so (4πr2) / 2 . Voila!


Is sphere a plane figure if not why?

Yes a sphere can be considered to be a curved plane 3 dimensional figure.


Is the area of a square is linear?

No. An area is always two-dimensional. It doesn't matter whether you are talking about the area of a square, a circle, an ellipse, or any other flat figure; or the surface are of a three-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere.


What solid figure has only one face?

The sphere.


A round figure who surface is at all points equidistant from the center?

A rounded figure that has all surface points equidistant from the center is a sphere. A common object that is a sphere is a tennis ball.


Is a circle a solid figure?

A circle is a plane figure. A 'circular' solid figure would be a sphere.
