No, a cube cannot have an octagonal cross-section.
What is the shape of the cross section of a cube if the cut is made across the diagonal of the cube?
Rectangle
What is the difference between the cross section of a pyramid and the cross section of a prism?
The cross section of a pyramid shrinks from the shape of the base down to a point as you move along its axis from the base to the apex. The cross section of a prism is constant along its axis.
What is the cross section formed by a plane that intersects three faces of a cube?
It is a triangle.
What is the shape of the cross section of a hexagonal prism if the cut is made parallel to a base?
A hexagon.

How do you draw a cross section of a cube?
It will be the same shape as a square
What is the difference between the cross section of a pyramid and the cross section of a prism?
The cross section of a pyramid shrinks from the shape of the base down to a point as you move along its axis from the base to the apex. The cross section of a prism is constant along its axis.
If you slice a rectangular pyramid perpendicular to the base but NOT through the apex what will be the shape of the cross section?
It will be one of:a triangle if where the cross section cuts the base is through two adjacent sides;an irregular quadrilateral if where the cross section cuts the base is through two opposite sides but not parallel to a side of the base; ora trapezium if where the is the cross section cuts the base is parallel to a side of the base.
