Answer:

Area of a slice = Area of the pizza ÷ 8

Therefore the area of the pizza equals:

AreaPizza = π r^2 ( r = diameter ÷ 2)

= π 6^2

= 113.097

AreaSlice = AreaPizza ÷ 8

= 113.097 ÷ 8

= 14.137 inches squared

To the nearest square inch, each slice is 14 inches squared.

Explanation:

Hope this helps.
