Answer: 784π mm²

Step-by-step explanation: To find the area of a circle, start with the formula for the area of a circle which is shown below.

Area = πr²

Notice that here, we're given the diameter instead of the radius.

Remember that the radius is equal to half of the diameter. So the radius of this circle will be equal to half 56 millimeters or 28 millimeters.

So plugging into the formula, we have (π)(28 mm)².

A common mistake is to plug 56 millimeters into the formula but remember that we must plug in the radius and not the diameter.

Multiplying, (28 mm)² is equal to (28 mm)(28 mm) or 784 mm².

So we have 784π mm².

So the area of the circle is 784π mm².

Which trigonometric functions are negative in the fourth (IV) quadrant?

anzhelika [568]

<h3>Answers are: sine, tangent, cosecant, cotangent</h3>

Explanation:

On the unit circle we have some point (x,y) such that x = cos(theta) and y = sin(theta). The sine corresponds to the y coordinate of the point on the circle. Quadrant IV is below the x axis which explains why sine is negative here, since y < 0 here.

Since sine is negative, so is cosecant as this is the reciprocal of sine

csc = 1/sin

In quadrant IV, cosine is positive as x > 0 here. So the ratio tan = sin/cos is going to be negative. We have a negative over a positive when we divide.

Because tangent is negative, so is cotangent.

The only positive functions in Q4 are cosine and secant, which is because sec = 1/cos.
