Question Significant Figures ?

Hi everyone !

Well, I have this big issue in my head and I think for the most part I am like overthinking the problem...

My actual problem is the understanding of significant figures IN calculations.

For example...

The correct results WITH the correct sig. figs. for: (angles are in degrees)

1314.459 + 3.01
23.15 * 5.2
29.87777 / 2.0
31.7 * sin(76)
pi * 2.3
( 2.765 + 4.1 ) / ( squrt(3*sin(55)))

I think you get the idea... I get confused whenever I start to mix up angles and many digits from different COMBINATIONS of arithmetic operations.

I really hope someone could clarify this for me b/c its killing me and it's taking a LOT of points from my exams

Thanks a lot in advance.

DEJHAN
