Answer:

The correct answer is Dale is absolutely wrong.

Explanation:

When the cake was complete, it had 360°. When the cake is divided into four halves each half now has 90° each.

Three person including Dale is about to eat the one fourth of the cake, divided among them equally.

Thus each friend gets
(90)/(3)° = 30° of cake each.

But Dale claims that each piece of cake has an angle measure if 45°, which is a contradiction as each piece is supposed to to be equal.

Thus Dale is WRONG.
