What does a plane that cuts through a square pyramid parallel to its base result to?
It creates a trapezium frustum.
How do you carve a cube to make a square pyramid?
Suppose the top face of the pyramid is ABCD with the square EFGH directly below it.Suppose AC and BD meet at P, the apex of the pyramid.Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to AB and goes through EF.Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to BC and goes through FG.Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to CD and goes through GH.Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to DA and goes through HE.The result will be the square-based pyramid PEFGH.
How many plane shapes in a pyramid?
A pyramid is a generic term and can have any number (>3) of plane faces. A triangular pyramid has 4 faces, a rectangular one has 5, and so on. A pyramid whose base has n sides has n+1 faces.
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.
Does a triangular based pyramid have any angle?
Yes. Four solid angles comprising 12 plane angles.
How many planes does a triangular pyramid have?
A triangular pyramid has 5 planes. * * * * * In fact, a triangular pyramid is also known as a tetrahedron and as its name suggests, it has 4 plane faces.
What does a plane that cuts through a square pyramid parallel to its base result to?

Brad cuts a triangular prism with a plane parallel to the base of the prism. What will the shape of the cross section be?
Triangular

What describes all cross sections of a square pyramid where the intersecting plane is parallel to the base?
All cross sections of a square pyramid that are parallel to the base are squares

What are the properties of a triangular prism?
A 3-dimensional shape. 5 plane faces: 3 rectangular, 2 triangular. Triangular faces parallel to one another. 6 vertices 9 edges
What is half of a rectangular prism?
The answer depends mainly on the plane which is used to divide the prism.The result can be a rectangular prism (or a cube), a trapezoidal prism, a triangular prism, but to get really exotic shapes the cutting plane needs to be not parallel to any of the faces or diagonals of the prism.
How many plans of symmetry does a triangular prism have?
It could have just one - a plane (not plan!) parallel to its bases and halfway between them.
What 3d shape has one of it faces has three sides and three other faces two parallel sides?
This is an impossible shape. The only 3-d shape with 4 plane faces is a tetrahedron (triangular pyramid). While its base is a triangle, all of its other faces are also triangles and so cannot have parallel sides.
