<h2>Answer:</h2>

William Jones

<h2 /><h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The number pi (π) is a platonic concept and has been used for 4000 years. The number pi can be approached but never reached. In general, this number means the constant ratio of the circumference to the diameter of any circle. Ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, and even Archimedes, one of the greatest mathematicians of the ancient world tried to approximate the value of pi, but in the 1700s, mathematicians began using the Greek letter π that was introduced by William Jones, in his second book <em>Synopsis Palmariorum Matheseos</em> or <em>A New Introduction to the Mathematics base</em>. Then, this symbol was popularized and adopted in 1737 by the greatest mathematician Leonhard Euler.

PLEASE HELP!!!! IM SOO CONFUSED
dangina [55]

Answer:

4. 480.38m² 6. 3.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you're looking for the area of the shaded region, you must first be aware that the entire circle has a 360 angle.

From there. for no. 4:

You subtract 87 from 360 to find the angle of the major arc.

360-87=273

From there you must also know the formula to find the area of a sector which is:

(x/360)×pi×r²

In our case 273 is x and 14.2 is r so

(273/360)×pi×14.2²= 480.38

Do the same steps to find 6
