The cube is a unit cube, with a side of 1 and a surface area of 6. (Right? Each side is 1x1 times 6 sides.)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The sphere, has a surface area of 4 pi r^2. The radius is 1/2 unit so
\n" ); document.write( "4 x pi x 1/4 or just pi. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "sphere to cube is pi/6 \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "or\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3.14159/6 = .5236 just over 52% the surface area.
