The cross section, of a 3D object, is the 2D shape made when a 2D plane cuts across the 3D object. Often "cross section" refers to the shape made when the plane is at right angles to an axis of the 3D object but this need not be the case.
A cylinder is a three dimensional shape with a uniform circular cross section and a finite length.
A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
A cross section made parallel to the base of a geometric shape typically reveals a similar shape to the base, maintaining proportional dimensions. This means that the properties of the cross section, such as area and volume, can be analyzed using the same principles that apply to the base. Additionally, the height of the shape affects the size of the cross section, often leading to relationships that can be used in calculations, such as ratios or scaling factors. Overall, the parallel cross section helps in understanding the geometric properties and dimensions of the entire shape.
trapezoidal cross section
Every cross-section of a sphere is a circle.

Not a right cross-section.
cross-section of a root
Yes a prism can have a square cross-section
trapezoidal cross section
Every cross-section of a sphere is a circle.
No, a cube cannot have an octagonal cross-section.
The cross section can be a triangle, rectangle or a hexagon.
length = volume/cross-section
A basketball is a sphere so a cross-section would be a circle.
