A game designer uses trigonometric scaling to morph a cube into a sphere. If the cube’s edge length is 6 units, by what factor must the surface area be scaled to match the sphere’s surface area?
Cube volume: \(6^3 = 216\), so sphere radius \( r \) from volume: \( \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = 216 \) → \( r^3 = \frac{162}{\pi} \approx 51.57 \) → \( r \approx 3.72 \).
Sphere surface area: \(4\pi r^2 \approx 4\pi (13.83) \approx 173.6\).
Scale factor: \( \frac{173.6}{216} \approx 0.803 \).
