Question

An apple pie has a 12-inch diameter and the angle of one slice is 60 degrees. What is the area of that slice of pie? Use 3.14 for π

Answer 1

I think that will be:

60 is to the circle in degrees as x (slice area) is to area of circle.

Answer 2

60/360 = x/(pi*r^2)

1/6 = x/ (36* pi)

Answer 3

Cross multiply and solve for x.

x = 6 pi Check that @Beechgrovestudent

Answer 4

Multiply 6 times 3.14 per the instructions.
