Represent the following expressions as the power of a number a.
1/a^2 · 1/a^3

a⁻⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

1/a²·1/a³

Multiply numerators and denominators

= (1 × 1)/(a² × a³)

= 1/a⁵

= a⁻⁵

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

step-by-step explanation:

the lateral surface area of a sphere is 2πrh where h=2r.

then:

surface area = 4πr^2.

in this case, r=8 units ⇒ surface area = 4π(8 units)^2. = 256π sq. units!

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

it has to have an angle of 90 degrees
