In a right circular cone the base is a circle and the sloped side is a sector of a circle. For a general cone, they are an ellipse and a sector of an ellipse.

Is a cone a cylinder?

No, it is not. For a cone, think of a standard ice-cream cone shape (or a witches hat) - a circular top OR base (but not both), which has sides coming off that taper into a point. Whereas a cylinder has a circular top AND base, (like the shape of baked bean cans), with sides joining both top and base.

Is a cone a regular or irregular shape?

A cone is classified as a three-dimensional geometric shape. It is considered a regular shape when it has a circular base and a single vertex at the top, forming a uniform structure. However, if the base is not circular or the sides are distorted, it can be referred to as an irregular shape. Thus, whether a cone is regular or irregular depends on its specific dimensions and proportions.


What shape would result if a cone was cut diagonally?

If a cone is cut diagonally, the resulting shape will be a frustum of a cone if the cut is parallel to the base, or a more complex shape resembling a triangular prism if the cut is made at an angle that intersects the cone's sides. The frustum retains the circular top and bottom surfaces, while the triangular prism shape will have triangular cross-sections along its height. The exact shape depends on the angle and position of the cut.
