If the radius of a hemisphere is increased by 18% what will be the effect on its curved surface area
r = radius C = base circumference V = volume A = curved surface area B = base surface area K = total surface area

√ = square root

Calculator Use

This online calculator will calculate the various properties of a hemisphere given any 1 known variable. It also calculates the variables in terms of PI π. A hemisphere is 1/2 of a sphere cut in half by passing a plane through the center of the sphere. Volume V and area A calculations are essentially for half of a sphere. See Hemispheres at Mathworld.

Units: Note that units are shown for convenience but do not affect the calculations.  The units are in place to give an indication of the order of the results such as ft, ft2 or ft3.  For example, if you are starting with mm and you know r in mm, your calculations will result with A in mm2, V in mm3 and C in mm.

Hemisphere Formulas in terms of radius r:

  • Volume of a hemisphere:
  • Circumference of the base of a hemisphere:
  • Curved surface area of a hemisphere (1 side, external only):
  • Calculate the base surface area of a hemisphere (a circle):
  • Total surface area of a hemisphere:
    • K = (2πr2) + (πr2) = 3πr2

Hemisphere Calculations:
