Question

A circle is drawn to represent a pizza with a 12

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter/2 = radius

12/2 = radius

radius = 6

The outer edge means you are measuring the circumference of the pizza.

Circumference = 2(pi)(radius)

Circumference = 2(pi)(6)

You are only finding 1/8 of the circumference

Therefore you are multiplying the circumference by 1/8

Length of 1 slice = (1/8)((2)(pi)(6)) = (12/8)(pi) = (3/2)(pi) = (3(pi)) / (2) or 4.71 inches
