Question

Heather’s mom baked two pies for an upcoming bake sale. She cut pie A into 4 equal slices and she cut pie B into 8 equal slices. Heather sees that the sides of each slice form an angle. Without using a protractor, find the angle measure of one slice from pie A and one slice from pie B.

Answer 1

Explanation:

(I love pie!)

Pie A: The entire pie is 360 degrees.

Cut it into 4 pieces. 360/4 = 90 degrees.

Pie B: The entire pie is 360 degrees.

Cut it into 8 pieces. 360/8 = 45 degrees.
