Answer: 0.0031 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: CSA = CSA = πD²  / 4  = 0.785 x D²

in which,

CSA = cross-sectional area of the wire, (in²)

D = outside diameter of the wire, (in)

π/4 = 0.785, a constant value

* (3.14 / 4 = 0.785) - this will always be a <em><u>constant value.</u></em>

There are two ways to find the CSA of a wire.

1.         πD² / 4

          3.14(0.0625²) / 4

          First multiply or square the diameter which is 0.0625

          0.0625 x 0.0625 = 0.00390625

          Second multiply 3.14 which is pi times the squared diameter

          3.14 x 0.00390625 = 0.012265625

          Last divide by 4

          0.012265625 / 4 = 0.0030664062 in²

          Round off and you will get 0.0031 in²

2.        0.785 x D²

          whereas, 0.785 is <u><em>always a constant</em></u> of π divided by 4

          0.785 x 0.0625²

          First multiply or square the diameter which is 0.0625

          0.0625 x 0.0625 = 0.00390625

          Last multiply the constant value of 0.785 by the value squared

          0.785 x 0.00390625 = 0.0030664062 in²

          Round off and you will get 0.0031 in²

* Hint - it is easier to remember that the constant value is 0.785

Given that the diameter: d= 0.0625 inch.

So, radius of the wire : r = \frac{0.0625}{2} = 0.03125 inch

Now the formula to find the cross-sectional area of wire ( circle) is:

A = πr²

= 3.14 * (0.03125)² Since, π = 3.14 and r = 0.03125

=3.14 * 0.000976563

= 0.003066406

= 0.00307 (Rounded to 5 decimal places).

Hence, cross-sectional area of a wire is 0.00307 square inches.

Hope this helps you!

Express cos(27pi/8) as a trigonometric function of an angle in Quadrant I.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The equivalent trigonometric ratio in Quadrant I is -\cos (\frac{3\pi}{8})

Step-by-step explanation:

The terminal side of \frac{27\pi}{8} is in the 3rd quadrant.

The principal angle is \frac{3\pi}{8}

In other words, the terminal side of \frac{27\pi}{8}  makes an acute angle of \frac{3\pi}{8} radian with the positive x-axis. Acute angles are in the first quadrant.

Since the cosine ratio is negative in the 3rd quadrant,

\cos (\frac{27\pi}{8})=-\cos (\frac{3\pi}{8})
