Answer:
SA = 108π cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area (SA) of a sphere is calculated as
SA = 4πr² ( r is the radius )
Thus the SA of a hemisphere is
SA = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 4πr² = 2πr²
The area of the circular base = πr²
Then total SA is
SA = 2πr² + πr² = 3πr² = 3π × 6² = 3π × 36 = 108π cm²
