A cross section, I believe
A cross section of a wall is a vertical or horizontal slice that reveals the internal structure and composition of the wall. It typically shows the layers of materials used, such as drywall, insulation, studs, and any finishes applied. This view helps in understanding how the wall is constructed and can be useful for design, renovation, or inspection purposes.
They are the shapes of the slices when you slice a cone. For example, when you slice it parallel to the base and look at the shape of the slice, you see the conic section known as a "circle". The others are the "ellipse", the "parabola", and the "hyperbola". Which one you get depends only on how you tilt the knife when you slice the cone.
