A plane cuts through a 26 cm diameter sphere, but the closest it gets to the center is 5 cm. What is the area of the intersection of the sphere and the plane?
(Plane = flat 2D surface)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

radius of sphere=26/2=13 cm

radius of circle formed =√(13²-5²)=√(169-25)=√144=12

area of circle formed formed by 5cm from radius=πr²=π×12²=144 π cm²
