    $\begingroup$ Well, it's a unit pizza, so you can click on the image to choose a unit that makes it less tiny :-) $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Do you think it might be possible to achieve 8 pieces, by cutting all 3 squares into the blue piece and the remainder, putting the 3 blue pieces as 3 quarters of the circle and one of the remainders into the 4th quarter, and then splitting the other two remainders and fitting them into the lens shape that's left in the 4th quarter? I don't know if there's enough room in the last step. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @xnor that was what I was attempting to do when I came up with this solution, couldn't figure out a way to make it work because everything was just too concave. That's not conclusive, of course. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ You could also do this with straight cuts and the same basic construction. Nicer, IMHO. You end up with a regular 12-sided figure. Update: I guess that ends up similar to @loopywalt. $\endgroup$
