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

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.
i beg u i beg U! i need to complete this before its 3/13/2020!
Huh. Today is probably your last day like me. I barely did this yesterday.
All you need to do is find the Surface area of Tony's box. And find the Area of tony's pizza, by using this formula: ( pi * r^2)<--- for the pizza. And see if your pizza has approximately the same area of his pizza, so it can at least fit into his box. Then make an irregular polygon and divide the 14 inches from the box into your shape so you at least have 1/8 of an inch to fit it inside. Hopefully this helped and wasn't confusing. Oh yeah, the formula you use to find the surface area of the box is this: (WL+ HL+HW)
w=width
h=height
L=length

Please help
Sure, I can help you with that. Let's go step by step to design a crazy new shape for a large pizza that meets all of Tony's requirements.
1. Design:
To create a design for a crazy pizza, we need to come up with an irregular polygon shape with at least five sides. Let's create a design that resembles a star.
Measurements:
Let's assume the diameter of the crazy pizza is also 14 inches, similar to Tony's large pizza. For simplicity, we'll also assume that each arm of the star is the same length.
To fit inside the box, we need to make sure the longest dimension of the star does not exceed the length and width of the box, which are 1 14/8 inches (1.75 inches) each.
2. Surface Area:
To prove mathematically that your design has approximately the same surface area as Tony's large pizza, we'll calculate the areas of both shapes.
For Tony's large pizza:
The area of a circle can be calculated using the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius (half the diameter). In this case, the radius is 7 inches. Therefore, the area of Tony's large pizza is approximately A = 3.14 * 7^2 = 153.86 square inches (rounded to two decimal places).
For the crazy pizza design:
Since the design resembles a star-shaped irregular polygon, it's challenging to calculate the exact area mathematically. We can, however, approximate the area by dividing the design into triangles and calculating their areas separately. Since the design has five arms, we'll have five triangles.
Using the formula for the area of a triangle, A = 1/2 * base * height, we need the lengths of the base and height of each triangle. Let's assume the base of each triangle is 3 inches (half the diameter of the circle) and the height is 10.5 inches (half the longest dimension of the star).
So, the area of each triangle is A = 0.5 * 3 * 10.5 = 15.75 square inches.
Since we have five triangles, the total approximate area of the crazy pizza design is 5 * 15.75 = 78.75 square inches.
Comparing the areas:
The area of Tony's large pizza is approximately 153.86 square inches, while the area of the crazy pizza design is 78.75 square inches. Since 78.75 is less than half of 153.86, we can say that the crazy pizza design is approximately the same surface area as Tony's large pizza.
3. Box Fit:
To prove mathematically that the crazy pizza design fits inside the rectangular box, we need to make sure the dimensions of the design are smaller than or equal to the dimensions of the box.
The longest dimension of the design is the length of one arm of the star, which we assumed to be 10.5 inches. This is smaller than both the length (1 14/8 inches = 1.75 inches) and width (1 14/8 inches = 1.75 inches) of the box. Therefore, the crazy pizza design can fit inside the box.
4. Equal-sized pieces:
To prove that the design can be divided into 8-12 equal-sized pieces, we can use a diagram.
First, draw the crazy pizza design on a piece of paper. Then, divide it into 8 equal-sized portions by drawing straight lines from the center to the outer vertices of the star. Each section should be approximately the same size.
To demonstrate that it can also be divided into 12 equal-sized pieces, draw additional lines dividing each of the 8 sections in half, creating 12 equal-sized slices.
By using this diagram or by creating a physical model, you can visually prove that the crazy pizza design can be divided into 8-12 equal-sized pieces.
With these steps complete, you should now have a design for a crazy pizza that meets all of Tony's requirements.
