Correct Answer: $4\pi $


Solution : The total surface area of a hemisphere = $3\pi r^2$
The curved surface area a hemisphere = $2\pi r^2$
where $r$ is the radius of the hemisphere.
Given that the diameter of the hemisphere is 4 cm, the radius $r$ is 2 cm.
The total surface area of a hemisphere = $3\pi (2)^2 = 12\pi$ cm 2
The curved surface area a hemisphere = $2\pi (2)^2 = 8\pi$ cm 2
Therefore, the difference between the total surface area and the curved surface area of the hemisphere is:
Difference = TSA – CSA = $12\pi - 8\pi = 4\pi$ cm 2
Hence, the correct answer is $4\pi$.
