$\bf \textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\
A=\cfrac{\theta\pi r^2}{360}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
\theta=\textit{angle in degrees}\\
r=radius\\
--------\\
r=8\\
\theta=40
\end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{40\cdot \pi \cdot 8^2}{360}$

Write a recursive definition for the sequence 14, 10, 6, 2...

VladimirAG [237]

The general form of recursive definition for arithmetic sequence:
$a_{n}=a_{1}+d(n-1)$

So, what we need to do is to find $a_{1}$ and $d$ .
$a_{1}=14$
$d=a_{2}-a_{1}=10-14=-4$
Having found these two values we can now define our recursive sequence:
$a_{n}=14-4(n-1)$
$a_{n}=14-4n+4$
$a_{n}=18-4n$
