Does a cross section always have to be horizontal or vertical?
No. Some of the classic curves studied by mathematicians: ellipses, hyperbola are cross sections of a cone taken at an angle.
What is the horizontal cross section of a rectangular pryamid?
It is a rectangle which is similar to the base.
What is the horrizontal cross section of a cone?
If it a right cone then it is a circle, otherwise an ellipse.
Are The shapes of the horizontal cross-sections of the cone below are all congruent?
True
The shapes of the horizontal cross-sections of the cone below are not all congruent.?
True
What 3 solids have a circle as a horizontal cross section?
cone
Would the horizontal cross section of a cone be congruent to its base?
No because it would be smaller.
Does a cross section always have to be horizontal or vertical?
No. Some of the classic curves studied by mathematicians: ellipses, hyperbola are cross sections of a cone taken at an angle.
What is the vertical cross section of a cone?
The vertical cross section of a right vertical cone is a triangle if that cross section is taken from the vertex. Any other vertical cross section will reveal a hyperbola (with endpoints on the base of the cone). A link can be found below.
What is the cross section of the cone?
Circle
What is the horizontal cross section of a rectangular pryamid?
It is a rectangle which is similar to the base.
What is the parallel cross section of a cone?
The answer depends on the angle at which the axis of the cone intersects the cross-sections.
What would a cone look like if it was cut horizontally?
It depends how the cone was standing relative to the horizontal plane of the cut:It will result in:a circle (if the cone is with its circular base in a horizontal plane)a parabola (if the cone is with its circular base is in a vertical plane)an ellipse (if the cone is tilted with its circular base somewhere between a horizontal plane and a vertical plane).
What is the horrizontal cross section of a cone?
If it a right cone then it is a circle, otherwise an ellipse.
What is the shape of a horizontal cross section of a cylinder?
If the cylinder is standing on its flat face, the horizontal cross section is a circle. Otherwise, it is a line or a rectangle.
What is the shape of the base cross section of a cone?
