Question

A pizza is cut into six unequal slices (each cut starts at the center). The largest slice measures 90 degrees

Answer 1

Let the common difference between 2 consecutive pizzas be x.

The pizza is cut into slices of

90°, 90°-x, 90°-x-x, 90°-x-x-x, 90°-x-x-x-x, 90°-x-x-x-x-x, 

that is

90°, 90°-x, 90°-2x, 90°-3x, 90°-4x, 90°-5x

the sum of these angles is 360°, so:

90°+90°-x+90°-2x+90°-3x+90°-4x+90°-5x=360°

90°*6-15x=360°

540°-360°=15x

180°=15x

x=12°

The degree measure of the fifth slice is 90°-4x=90°-4*12=90°-48=42°
