Step-by-step explanation:

1) Central angle:

A central angle is defined as the angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle. The radius vectors form the arms of the angle.

It is the angle formed by one slice of the pizza

2)Radius:

a line segment extending from the center of a circle or sphere to the circumference or bounding surface.

Length of one side of the slice of the pizza

3) Minor arc:

A minor arc is the shorter arc connecting two endpoints on a circle . The measure of a minor arc is less than 180° , and equal to the measure of the arc's central angle . A major arc is the longer arc connecting two endpoints on a circle.

The curved length of one part of the pizza

4)Diameter:

A straight line that runs from one side of a figure and passes through the center Measure the diameter of the circle.

The twice the length of one slice of the pizza

5)Major arc:

The curved length of the remaining slices of pizza after one has been removed

6)Semicircle:
