What is the intersection of a solid and a plane parallel to the base or bases of the solid?

It is a horizontal cross-section. Its shape will depend on the shape of the solid and its orientation.

A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.


What is the shape of the slice of cake cut parallel to a base of a cube?

It depends which orientation the cube has to the cake and which shape the cake is. However, assuming you meant a cube shaped cake was cut parallel to its base: It will be a cuboid.


How is a cylinder and triangular prism alike?

because the cylinder has a circular base and a triangular prism has a triangular base so they are both basic shapes.
