Use a calculator to evaluate the following exponential expression. Round to two decimal places.
${13}^{\pi }$

• A. $3159.05$
• B. $3001.89$
• C. $3204.76$
• D. $3107.42$

Answer: (A)

Verified step by step guidance

1. Identify the expression to evaluate: \(13^{\pi}\), where \(\pi\) (pi) is approximately 3.14159.
2. Understand that this is an exponential expression with a base of 13 and an irrational exponent \(\pi\).
3. Use a calculator that can handle powers with irrational exponents. Enter 13, then use the exponentiation function (usually labeled as ^ or y^x), and then enter the value of \(\pi\).
4. Calculate the value of \(13^{\pi}\) using the calculator. This will give a decimal number.
5. Round the result to two decimal places as requested.
