What is the perpendicular cross section of a rectangular prism?
It is a rectangle.
How Do you make a cross section of a parallelogram from a pyramid?
It depends on the pyramid. If it is a square based pyramid, a horizontal plane will give a square cross section, a plane inclined by a rotation parallel to one of the base axes will give a rectangular cross section whereas a plane inclined by rotation along both basal axes will result in a parallelogram cross section. Not sure how you get a parallelogram from a pentagonal or hexagonal (etc) pyramid.
What is the name of a 2d square based pyramid?
You cannot have a 2d pyramid - whether or not it is square based. The 2d cross section will depend on the plane of the cross section.
What is the horizontal cross section of a rectangular pryamid?
It is a rectangle which is similar to the base.
What would the cross section of a square pyramid be?
Depending on the inclination of the plane used for the cross-section, it could be a square, rectangle, trapezium, triangle.
Which two-dimensional figure could be a cross section of a rectangular pyramid that has been intersected by a plane perpendicular to its base and not through its vertex?
trapezoid
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 perpendicular cross section of a rectangular prism?
It is a rectangle.
What is the cross section of a triangular pyramid?
triangle
What is a cross section of a cone?
Circle: If the knife is perpendicular to the axis of the cone.Ellipse: If the knife is between (perpendicular to the axis of the cone) and (parallel to the side of the cone).Parabola: If the knife is between (parallel to the side of the cone) and (parallel to the axis of the cone).Hyperbola: If the knife is parallel to the axis of the cone.Triangle: If the knife is perpendicular to the base of the cone.Point: If the knife is parallel to the base the cone and through the apex
What is the vertical cross section of a rectangular pyramid?
triangle

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.
What is the name of a 2d square based pyramid?
You cannot have a 2d pyramid - whether or not it is square based. The 2d cross section will depend on the plane of the cross section.
What is the horizontal cross section of a rectangular pryamid?
It is a rectangle which is similar to the base.
Identify horizontal cross section of a square pyramid?
