Question

Assume a 14-inch pizza can be purchased as a whole pizza, a half pie, or one of 8 slices. Determine

the
area of each of those options. Explain how you found the 8 slice amount

Answer 1

The diameter of the pizza = 14 in

Radius of the pizza = (14/2)in = 7in

Area of a whole pizza =

πr^2

=( 22/7 × 7^2)in^2

=( 22/7 × 49)in^2

154 in^2

Area of a half pie =( 1/2 × 154)in^2 = 77in^2

Area of one of 8 slices = (1/8 × 154)in^2 = 19.25in^2
