The radius of the sphere is 8 cm. Two points are selected on the sphere and connected with a segment. Enter the length of the longest line.
Obviously, the selected segment will be the diameter of the circle, if we consider the sphere in section.
And the largest such circle is a circle, the diameter of which coincides with the diameter of the sphere.
Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is the largest segment between two points on the sphere.
Then, in our case, the largest segment is 2 * 8 = 16 cm.
