Answer:

<em>The perimeter of the pizza slice is 20.1 cm</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perimeter of a Sector of a Circle</u>

The arc length of a sector of a circle of radius r and angle θ is given by:

L = rθ

The angle must be expressed in radians.

The total perimeter of the circular sector, including the two radii, is:

P = rθ + 2r

The pizza slice has a radius of r=7 cm and a central angle of θ=50°

Converting to radians:

$\theta=50*\frac{\pi}{180}=\frac{5\pi}{18}$

The perimeter is:

$P = 7*\frac{5\pi}{18} + 2*7$

Calculating:

P = 20.1 cm

The perimeter of the pizza slice is 20.1 cm
