Question
Suppose a pizzeria normally cuts a circular pizza into 8 equal slices, each angle having an equal angle measure. If someone asks that some of them be sliced in half, what will the angle measurre of the half slices be?
Solution
A circular pizza is 360 degrees. If a pizza is normally cut into 8 equal slices, each slice would have an angle measure of 360/8 = 45 degrees.
If some of these slices are cut in half, the angle measure of the half slices would be 45/2 = 22.5 degrees.
