Surface Area of Sphere
The surface area of a sphere is an area of its periphery. For example, if you count how much paint do you need to paint a surface of a sphere, you measure its radius and use a formula to calculate a surface of a sphere. The elementary unit of the surface area is one square metre, it means the second power of one metre (1 m2).
