  About ikleyn: OVERVIEW of LESSONS on Volume of SpheresFor your convenience, this file contains- the list of my lessons on volume of spheres in this site, - the formula for calculating the volume of spheres, and - the list of relevant solved problems. SpheresA sphere is a surface in a 3D space all points of which are equidistant from one point called the center of the sphere.Figure 1a shows the sphere. A radius of a sphere is a straight segment connecting the center of the sphere with a point on the sphere surface (Figure 1b). A diameter of a sphere is the straight segment passing through the center of the sphere and connecting the opposite points of the sphere (Figure 1c).
Properties of spheres1. Every section of a sphere by a plane is a circle. 2. A tangent segment to a sphere released from a point in 3D space outside the sphere is perpendicular to the radius of the sphere drawn from its center to the tangent point. 3. All tangent segments to a sphere released from one fixed point outside the sphere have the same length. Formula for calculating the volume of spheresThe volume of a sphere is where My lessons on volume of spheres in this site- Volume of spheresunder the topic Volume, metric volume of the section Geometry, and - Solved problems on volume of spheres under the topic Geometry of the section Word problems.
