Answer:

3.14 * m2

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the surface formula of sphere:

4 (pi) r^2

The radio r is the half of the diameter, which in this case is m. So r = m/2

Surface= 4*(3.14)(m/2)^2

= 4*3.14*(m^2)/(2^2)

= 4 * 3.14 * m^2 / 4 { here we can cancel the numbers 4, as one multiplies an the other divides)

= 3.14 * m^2

Replace the m for its value and get the surface.

Answer:

[tex]S.A= \pi m^2 \approx3.14m^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider the moon as a sphere, we can find its surface area using the following formula:

[tex]Surface\hspace{3}area=S.A=4 \pi r^2\\\\Where:\\\\r=radius[/tex]

As you may know, the length of he diameter is twice the length of the radius, so:

[tex]diameter=d=2r\\\\Thus\\\\r=\frac{d}{2}[/tex]

The problem tell us:

[tex]d=m[/tex]

Therefore, the surface area of Earth's moon is:

[tex]S.A=4\pi (\frac{m}{2} )^2 =4\pi \frac{m^2}{4} =\pi m^2 \approx3.14m^2[/tex]
