To find the surface area of a sphere, you can use the formula:
Surface Area = 4πr²
Since the diameter is given, we can find the radius by dividing it by 2:
Radius = Diameter/2 = 30 inches / 2 = 15 inches
Now, we can substitute the value of the radius into the formula:
Surface Area = 4π(15)² = 4π(225) = 900π in.²
Therefore, the correct answer is:
900π in.²
