When you cut a cylinder perpendicular to its base, the resulting cross section is a circle. This is because the cut slices through the circular base, maintaining the same radius throughout the height of the cylinder. The shape of the cross section remains consistent regardless of the height at which the cut is made, as long as it is perpendicular to the base.
No, not all cross-section shapes that are parallel or perpendicular to one of the bases of a solid are necessarily the same. The shape of the cross-section depends on the geometry of the solid. For example, in a cylinder, the cross-sections parallel to the bases are circular, while in a prism, they may be polygonal. Each solid can produce different cross-sectional shapes based on its specific dimensions and angles.
It is a rectangle.
A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
The shape that emerges from a perpendicular cross-section depends on the original three-dimensional object being cut. For example, if you cross-section a cylinder perpendicularly, you will get a circle. If you do the same with a cube, the resulting cross-section will be a square. Each geometric shape produces a unique two-dimensional shape when intersected in this manner.
A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross section whereas a cylinder has a circular cross section
It will be a rectangle
The volume of a cylinder is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder multiplied by its length. The perpendicular cross-section of a cylinder is a circle.
The shape of a transverse cross section of a cylinder is a circle.
A cut through a right circular cylinder that is perpendicular to its altitude yields a circular cross-section. A right circular cylinder that is cut on a plane not perpendicular to its altitude but also but also not parallel to its altitude will yield an ellipse whose minor axis is the diameter of the cylinder. Trivial cases of a set of parallel lines, a single line, or the empty set occur when the cut is parallel to the altitude, externally tangent to the cylinder, or does not intersect the cylinder, respectively.
You cannot have a 2d cylinder. The 2d cross section will depend on the plane of the cross section.
A cylinder has a circular cross-section whereas a cuboid has a quadrilateral cross-section.

A circle, ellipse, truncated ellipse or rectangle - depending on the inclination of the cross section relative to the cylinder.
