    125.66 in2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of the pizza is given by the formula:

    Area = pi * radius^2

    The radius of the pizza is half the diameter, so radius = 16/2 = 8 inches

    Then, the total area is:

    Area = pi * 8^2 = 64pi in2

    They will put cheese in 5 of the 45° slices, so the total angle covered is 5 * 45° = 225°.

    If the full area of the pizza is 360°, we can find the area covered by cheese using a rule of three:

    360° - > 64pi in2

    225° - > x in2

    x = (225/360) * 64pi

    x = 125.66 in2
