. Twice the radius is called the diameter, and pairs of points on opposite sides of a diameter are called antipodes. The term "sphere" technically refers to the outer surface of a "bubble," which is denoted . However, in common usage, the word sphere is also used to mean the union of a sphere and its interior (a "solid sphere"), where the interior is called a ball. The surface area of the sphere and volume of the ball of radius R are given by (1) (2) (Beyer 1987, p. |

set the gradient to FOREGRUND-BACKGROUND and the HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL CENTERS to 30 each. Now select your foreground and background colors to whatever you want and the result is on the palette. At this point you have a cool looking sphere, but let's make it better. If you are running 16 bit graphics or lower, you'll notice some lines on the sphere where the colors change. Ok, now lets punch up the shadows and highlights on the sphere. |
The area of the curved region (lune) is 2r, the angle being measured in radians. .3 Cones 14 Spheres The set of points in space whose distance to a fixed point (the center) is a fixed positive number (the radius) is a sphere. Four points not on the same plane determine a unique sphere. The area of a sphere of radius r is 4r, and the volume is r.
