Can you figure out the answer without knowing the question?

A good multiple choice exam question is written with plausible wrong answers in mind - so that the question can identify people who don't have a full understanding of the subject.

Even this tiny bit of knowledge can be used to our advantage.

So - here are the answers to a multiple choice question... which is right?

a) 4π cm2
b) 8π cm2
c) 16 cm2
d) 16π cm2
e) 32π cm2

(π means pi by the way)
