Cutting a round cake so that it doesn't dry out 2014-08-26
James pose la question :
I'm wondering if there's a simple way to calculate the area between two parallel chords of a circle equidistant from its diameter, or if I have the area, to find the distance between the two chords.
Here's my "problem". You may have heard of the way of cutting a round cake so that it doesn't dry out - make two parallel cuts (chords) the length of the cake, take the middle piece, then push the two pieces together.
So I know the area of a 12" cake, and I want say, exactly an eighth of the cake. How wide do I cut the centre piece? Now to get even more difficult, the next day I want another eighth from the centre. How wide do I cut the next pieces, and so on...? Thanks, James

A 3D cardboard cupcake 2010-01-30
Margaret pose la question :
Hi,
I'm an art student and I'm attempting to build a 3D cupcake out of cardboard. I want it to have a circular base of 8.5 inches and sides that are 7'' tall and slope outward so the top of the base is 29'. The top with the frosting would be a detachable lid made from a cone with a base circumfrance of 29". My problem is how to cut the side so they will slope out, I'm pretty sure there needs to be a curve, however I don't how to calculate the degree of it. Ideally I want the sides to be a single piece of cardboard. I also don't know how to calculate the arc needed to make a cone who's circular base's circumfrence is 29''.
Thanks,
Margaret
