Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
π, pronounced as <em>pi</em> is the ratio between 2πr which is circumference to 2r which is diameter.
In word, π is circumference/diameter which has exact value of 3.14159... and it is also an irrational number too.
π is often used to be defined as 3, 3.14 or 22/7 [Keep in mind, these numbers are only approximation.] in some fields. In trigonometry, π is mostly used to refer as <u>π radians</u> or <u>π rad</u> which is equivalent to 180°.
Why do we need it? Because it’s useful in a field that requires rotation. If you notice, figure with circular base will always have π with it, the volume is an example.
In calculus, you need π to do solid of revolution method which is:
In trigonometry, you need it for measurement/angle.
So anything that’s related to revolution, rotation or related to circle must require π at least.
In general life, you do not use it but this is mostly applied in engineering field and anything related to science that involves with circle or revolve.
