But why is a sphere's surface area four times its shadow?

The video explores the formula for the surface area of a sphere, 4πr², and its connection to the area of a circle. It presents two approaches: one using a cylinder and another using projection. The video delves into geometric reasoning, offering exercises and a trigonometric proof, and concludes with a generalization to convex shapes.
