We’re all familiar with standard pizza slices - one center slice and two 45-degree cuts and you’re ready to party with 6 perfect slices. Throw in another cut and you’ve got 8. But what if I told you that you can cut a pizza anywhere on its surface -- not just across its diameter -- and get a perfectly fair, shareable pizza for two people by assigning alternating slices? Prepare to witness the most delicious, unexpected presentation of mathematical beauty: a proof without words. And bring napkins. ** LINKS ** The Pizza Theorem http://web.maths.unsw.edu.au/~mikeh/webpapers/paper57.pdf Mathematics Magazine, Volume 41, 1968: "Problem 660" by L.J.
