What shape is the cross section of a square pyramid when sliced perpendicular to its base through a vertex?
When a square pyramid is sliced perpendicular to its base through a vertex, the cross section will be a triangle. This triangle will have one vertex at the apex of the pyramid and the other two vertices on the base, forming a triangular shape that includes one of the pyramid's edges and a segment of the base. The resulting triangle will be isosceles if the slice is made symmetrically.
What else can I help you with?
What solid figure has the same cross section when its sliced by a plane parallel to its base as when it is sliced by a plane perpendicular to its base?
Sphere
What is the vertical cross section of square pyramid?
The vertical cross section of a square pyramid is a triangle. When the pyramid is sliced vertically through its apex and down to the base, the resulting shape is a triangular profile that includes the apex at the top and the edges of the base at the bottom. The height of the triangle corresponds to the height of the pyramid, while the base of the triangle spans the width of the base of the pyramid.
If a right rectangular pyramid is sliced with a plane perpendicular to its base and containing its vertexwhat shape would be formed?
They would be two right triangular pyramids.
What 3d shape has one curved?
A sphere, a cone, a section of a sphere or ellipsoid, a torus (doughnut) sliced by a plane perpendicular to its axis, a paraboloid. These are some examples.
What is the cross section of a paraboloid?
The cross section of a paraboloid, when sliced parallel to its axis of symmetry, is a parabola. If the slice is made perpendicular to the axis, the cross section can be a circle or an ellipse, depending on the orientation and position of the cut. The specific shape of the cross section will vary based on the location and angle of the slice in relation to the paraboloid.

Solid shape having a single circular base?
There are many possible answers: A sphere sliced by a plane. An ellipsoid with two equal radii, sliced by a plane parallel to them. A paraboloid sliced by a plane perpendicular to its axis. A cone.
When a pyramid is sliced at an angle what shape is formed?
When a pyramid is sliced at an angle, the shape formed depends on the angle and position of the cut. If the slice is made parallel to the base, a smaller, similar pyramid is created. If the cut is made at an angle that is not parallel to the base, the resulting shape is typically a trapezoid or a polygon, depending on the specific geometry of the slice and the original pyramid.
Could you slice a rock with a sword?
It depends on the rock. Pumice is very weak and can be sliced through easily. Sandstone may be sliced through depending on its strength. Generally most rock types on the planet are are too hard to be sliced through with a sword.
What 2D shape would you see in the cross section?
The shape of the cross section depends on the 3D object being sliced. For example, if you slice through a cylinder horizontally, the cross section would be a circle. If you cut through a cube diagonally, the cross section could be a triangle or a rectangle, depending on the angle of the cut. Thus, the specific 2D shape observed in the cross section varies based on the object's geometry and the orientation of the cut.
You have one curved face and one flat face who are you?
A cone, or a parabolic section, or a section of a sphere like a hemisphere, or a torus (donut) sliced in half sideways.
What is the name of the shape of a pyramid without its top?
The shape of a pyramid without its top is called a frustum. A frustum is formed when a pyramid is sliced parallel to its base, resulting in a truncated shape that has two parallel bases: one larger and one smaller. This geometric figure retains the original triangular faces of the pyramid, minus the apex.
What shape is the cross section a cube?
The cross-section of a cube can vary depending on how it is cut. If sliced parallel to one of its faces, the cross-section will be a square. If cut diagonally, the cross-section can be a rectangle or a more complex polygon, depending on the angle and position of the cut.
