Question

Name the shape that would result from slicing a rectangular pyramid parallel to the base

  1. Circle
  2. Square
  3. Rectangle
  4. Triangle

The correct answer is: Rectangle


    Rectangle

    Since the pyramid is rectangular, this means that the base of the pyramid is a rectangle. Therefore, if we slice it parallel to the base, we’ll get a cross section which will look like the base of the pyramid, i.e., a rectangle.

    Describe the cross section.

    The plane cuts the cone at an angle which is not parallel to the base of the cone, this is the reason why we are getting an oval. If the plane did cut the cone making 0 degrees with the base of the cone, then we would have got a circle.
