What are pairs parallel faces?

In a polyhedron - a 3-dimensional object - a pair of parallel faces are two faces which lie in planes that are parallel to each other.Parallel faces need not be congruent. For example, consider a pyramid whose top is sliced off by a plane parallel to it base. The flat top and the base will be parallel faces but will not be congruent.


What is produced when you slice a cone with a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone?

That conic section is a circle.When you slice a cone with a plane parallel to the base of the cone, the sliced section is a circle, and the portion of the original cone on the side of the vertex is again a cone.An isosceles cone would be the out come
