You can put this solution on YOUR website! The radius of a sphere is increased 50%.The increase in the surface area of sphere is?
surface area of sphere=4πr^2
Surface area increases as the square of the radius.
For example, if you double the radius, the surface area increases 2^2=4 times
If you increase the area by 50%, the surface area increases (1.5)^2=2.25 times
