Introduction to the Volume of a Sphere

Question 3 • FL-1205040-M/J Grade 7 Mathematics B -GF

Which statement about a sphere is true?

Answer
A
The length of the diameter of a sphere is two times the length of the radius of the sphere.
B
The great circle of a sphere is a three-dimensional circle.
C
The great circle of a sphere is not the same shape as the base of a cone.
D
The center of a sphere is created from a plane that passes through the sphere.

Explanation

A sphere’s diameter passes through its center and consists of two radii placed end to end, so its length is twice the radius. A great circle is a flat, two-dimensional circle, not a three-dimensional circle, and it has the same shape as a cone’s circular base. A plane passing through a sphere can create a cross-section; it does not create the sphere’s center.
