Angle

One Word Sunday

From Geometry for Dummies:

• If you cut a pizza into four big slices, each slice makes a 90° angle
  
• If you cut a pizza into four big slices and then cut each of those slices in half, you get eight pieces, each of which makes a 45° angle
  
• If you cut the original pizza into 12 slices, each slice makes a 30° angle
  

So 1/12 of a pizza is 30°, 1/8 is 45°, 1/4 is 90°, and so on.

The bigger the fraction of the pizza, the bigger the angle.
