A cross section parallel to the base of a prism retains the same shape as the base itself. This is because prisms have uniform cross sections along their height, meaning the dimensions and angles of the base are consistent throughout. Therefore, if the base is a triangle, rectangle, or any other shape, the cross section will also be that same shape.

What shape does a triangular prism have that a recutangular prism does not havee?
A triangular prism has a triangular cross-section. A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross-section.
What is a Plane slices through a square prism and the resulting cross section is a square?
When a plane slices through a square prism and the resulting cross-section is a square, it indicates that the plane is cutting parallel to the base of the prism. This maintains the dimensions of the square shape at that specific height within the prism. The orientation and position of the slice determine the size of the resulting square cross-section, but it will always remain a square as long as the plane is parallel to the prism's bases.

What makes a triangular prism a triangular prism?
It is a three dimensional shape bounded by polygonal faces (a polyhedron) which has a uniform triangular cross section, parallel triangular bases, and the remaining faces are rectangular.
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.
