Question

Dale and 2 friends share 1/4 of a cake. Each piece is the same size. Dale believes each piece of cake has an angle measure of 45 degree. Is sale correct explain

Answer 1

Dale is not correct (see the explanation)

Explanation:

step 1

Divide 1/4 by 3 ( Dale and two friends)

`(1/4)/3=(1)/(12)`

step 2

we know that

The complete circle (cake) have a central angle of 360 degrees

Divide 360 degrees by 12

`(360^o)/(12)= 30^o`

That means----> Each slice of 1/12 has an angle measure of 30 degrees

therefore

Dale is not correct
