The cross section of a cylinder can be an ellipse when the cylinder is not aligned perpendicular to the plane of the cross section. Specifically, if the cylinder is oblique (tilted) relative to the cutting plane, the intersection can produce an elliptical shape. This occurs when the cutting plane intersects the cylinder at an angle other than 90 degrees, resulting in an elliptical cross section instead of a circular one.

What is the cross section of a hollow cylinder?
A circle, ellipse, truncated ellipse or rectangle - depending on the inclination of the cross section relative to the cylinder.
What is The Cross Section of a Cylinder called?
Ellipse * * * * * At right angles to the length, it would be a circle. Along the length it would be a rectangle. Only a diagonal cross section would be an ellipse.
What is the shape of the cross-section of a circular cylender?
Holding the knife at different angles, you could cut a cylinder and get a circle, an ellipse, or a rectangle.
What is the horrizontal cross section of a cone?

What has a circular cross section when the cross section is taken parallel?

A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
How is a sphere is different form an ellipse?
A sphere is three-dimensional whereas an ellipse is two-dimensional. An ellipse can have an oval shape but a cross section of a sphere is always circular.
