Comparing Pizzas

Throughout this module, you have studied circles. You explored how to calculate arc length and area of sector, the equation of a circle, angle of a circle, segments of a circle, and you applied your skills in practical problems. In this assignment, you are going to use your skills to compare the price per inch of crust for the pizzas from three different companies of your choosing. You will need to research and compare the prices for the pizzas with the same crust diameter.

• Research and compare the price for three similar diameter pizzas from three different pizza companies of your choosing. Record your findings in the data table provided.
• Determine the arc length of 1/6 of each pizza using 3.14 for pi. Record your findings in the data table provided.
• Take the price per pizza and divide that by the arc length of that section of pizza. Record your findings in the data table provided.

Pizza Diameter	Price of Business A	Price for Business C	Arc Length for 1/6 of the Pizza	Price per inch of Crust
