large pizza at Tony's pizza is a circle with a 14 inch diameter it's box is a rectangular prism that is 14 1/8 inches long 14 1/8 inches wide and 1 3/4 inches tall you have to create a new shape for the pizza but it has to have at least 5 sides and be cut into equal slices. Please show all of your work

Question

All I need is to prove that the box is about the same surface area as Tony's large pizza. And that the pizza will fit in the box

Answer 1

Surface area of the pizza = πr2
= 3.14 x (7 inches)2
= 3.14 x 49
= 153.86 in2

Surface area of the box = 2(14 1/8 x 14 1/8) + 2(14 1/8 x 1 3/4) + 2(1 3/4 x 14 1/8)
= 2(198.06) + 2(25.06) + 2(24.75)
= 396.12 + 50.12 + 49.50
= 495.74 in2

The surface area of the box is slightly larger than the surface area of the pizza, so the pizza will fit in the box.

Answer 2

Weird!!!
since the box is 14 1/2 by 14 1/2, and the diameter of the pizza
is 14, it will fit.
