any cross section of a sphere is a circle.
When a sphere is cut with a vertical angled plane, the cross-section will be an ellipse. If the sphere is then cut by a horizontal plane, the cross-section will be a circle. Thus, the combination of these two cuts results in an elliptical cross-section from the angled cut and circular cross-sections from the horizontal cuts at various heights.
A sphere is.
No. A circle is 2-dimensional. A sphere, however, is a 3-dimensional object with circular cross-sections.
Every cross-section of a sphere is a circle.
When a sphere is cut into cross sections, the shape formed is a circle. This is because all cross sections of a sphere will be circular in shape, regardless of the angle or position of the cut.

A sphere is.
A circle. (or approximately a circle if you look closely the mountains and valleys that the cross section cuts through disturb the circle). a mathematical sphere will give a mathematical circle at all cross sections.

All cross sections of a square pyramid that are parallel to the base are squares
Any way you slice the earth, you get a chunk whose outline is a circle. (or approximately a circle if you look closely the mountains and valleys that the cross section cuts through disturb the circle). a mathematical sphere will give a mathematical circle at all cross sections.
Every cross-section of a sphere is a circle.
The vertical cross sections are trapezia or triangles. The horizontal cross sections are rectangles which are mathematically similar to the base.
