A large pizza at Tony's Pizzeria is a circle with a 14-inch diameter. Its
box is a rectangular prism that is 1 14
8 inches long, 1 14
8 inches wide, and 3
1
4
inches
tall. Your job is to design a crazy new shape for a large pizza. It can be any
irregular polygon shape, but it must have at least five sides.
Tony says he will make and sell your crazy pizza if you can prove the following:
• It is approximately the same area as the large pizza he sells now.
• It fits inside the large box listed above.
• It can be cut into 8‒12 equal-sized pieces.

Create one design for a crazy pizza that will meet all of Tony's requirements.
1. Create a representation of your design that includes measurements.
2. Prove mathematically, using appropriate formulas, that your design is
approximately the same surface area as Tony’s large pizza.
3. Prove mathematically, using appropriate formulas, that your pizza will fit in
the box.
4. Use diagrams or other models to prove that your design can be divided into
8‒12 equal-sized pieces.

ASAP!

can't read you attempts at fractions. Try something like 11 1/4 or 10 1/2

Consider using a regular pentagon with an apothem of 7", or the radius of the pizza. Look online to find the area of such a figure. It will be the smallest 5-sided box that will hold the pizza.

ANY figure can be divided into 8-12 pieces of equal size. Depending on how crazy it is, they might not be suitable to fit a pizza slice. (Of course, the pizza slices don't have to be the usual shape, either!)

How am going to find the surface area?
Answered by Steve
ever hear of google? Try looking for

pentagon area

I screwed myself over and now have to do 3 portfolio items in a row someone just call the math expert of the friend group to help
Answered by Psfinity
I do not fully understand this portfolio either.
Answered by Psfinity
I'm stuck on dividing it into equal parts, it's impossible.

Yo tengo is just straight up rude, saying no to someone who needs help
Answered by Hu Tao<3
for everyone stuck on dividing them, try using an octagon! (my apologies if this is incorrect i just started doing the portfolio and an octagon came to my mind first TvT) ill try to help more after i figure this out!!! <3

As a math teacher, I know that not everyone is using the same dimensions and area. Start by finding the area of the circular pizza...
Then try something simple like a pentagon (3 triangles of equal size). If you take the area of the pizza and divide it into 3, you will get the area of each triangle. From there you need to determine the size of your triangles using the formula for area of a triangle.
I hope that at least gets you going in the right direction....
