- … die Berechnung der Oberfläche einer Halbkugel …
- O: die Oberfläche der Halbkugel.
- d: den Durchmesser der “Mündung in Erhaltung”, d.h. der größten Kreises der Halbkugel.
- O = [ (2d – 2/9 d) – 1/9 (2d – 2/9 d) ] * d
- O = 1/2 d π d
- x = π/4 = (8/9)2, Annäherung
- A: Halbkreisumfang.
- A = (2d – 2/9 d) – 1/9 (2d – 2/9 d)
- A = (2d – 2/9 d)(1 – 1/9)
- A = 2d (1 – 1/9) (1 – 1/9)
- A = 2d (8/9)2
- A = 2d x

- M = 4 1/2, Mündung, Diameter
- O = Oberfläche von Halbkugel (🇺🇲 surface area)
- O = 2 π r2
- r = Radius, M/2
- π/4 = (1 – 1/9)2
- π = 4 (1 – 1/9)2
- O = 2 π r2
- O = 2 * 4 (1 – 1/9)2 (M/2)2
- O = 2 (1 – 1/9)2 M2
- O = 2M (1 – 1/9)2 M
- O = 2M (1 – 1/9) (1 – 1/9) M
- O = (2M – 1/9 2M) (1 – 1/9) M
- O = (2 * 4,5 – 1/9 * 2 * 4,5) (1 – 1/9) 4,5
- O = (9 – 1/9 * 9) (1 – 1/9) 4,5
- O = (9 – 1) (1 – 1/9) 4,5
- O = 8 (1 – 1/9) 4,5
- O = (8 – 8 * 1/9) 4,5
- O = (8 – 8/9) 4,5
- O = 7 1/9 * 4,5
- O = 32
