If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane so that the intersection goes through the cone's vertex as well as an edge of each nappe, the shape produced is a line.
Not asked, but...
If the angle of the plane is less than the angle of the cone, then the intersection is a point. If the angle of the plane is greater than the angle of the cone, then the intersection is two lines intersecting at the vertex.
If the plane insersects at other than the vertex, then the intersection is a circle when the plane is perpendicular to the cone's axis, an ellipse when the plane's angle is less than the cone's angle, a parabola when the planes's angle equals the cone's angle, and two hyperbole's in the last case.

If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane that goes through both nappes of the cone but not through the vertex as in the picture below what shape is produced?
A line is produced
If a right circular cone intersects a plane that goes through both nappes of the cone but not through the vertex the resulting curve will be what?
if a right circular cone intersects a plane that goes through both nappes of the cone, but not through the vertex, the resulting curve will be a hyperbola
Why can three coplanar lines have zero one two or three points of intersection?
If all three lines are parallel, there are zero points of intersection. If all three lines go through a point, there is one point of intersection. If two lines are parallel and the third one crosses them, there are two. If the three lines make a triangle, there are three points.
What transformation moves objects along a circular arc with a specified center through a specified angle?
Rotation.
The intersection of a plane and cone?
If it's parallel to the base, it's a circle. If it doesn't go through the base, it's an ellipse. If it's does, it's hyperbolic/parabolic.
If a circular cone is intersected by a plane so that the intersection goes through its vertex as well as the edge of the nappe what shape is produced?
If I understand your description correctly, a line.

A line is produced
What shape is produced if a right circular cone is intersected by a plane that goes through both nappes of the cone but not through the vertex?
An Ellipse
If a right circular cone is intersected by a plane that passes through only one nappe of the cone but is not parallel to an edge of the cone what shape is produced?
An ellipse is produced.
If both nappes of a right circular cone are intersected by a plane that does not pass through the vertex of the cone the resulting curve will be a?
It will be a hyperbola.
If both nappes of a right circular cone are intersected by a plane that does not pass through the vertex of the cone the resulting curve will be a(n)?
hyperbola
If both nappes of a right circular cone are intersected by a plane that does not pass through the vertex of the cone the resulting curve will be a(n) .?
hyperbola
What is it called when a plane intersects a right circular cone through both nappes?
The intersection forms a hyperbola.
What if a right circular cone intersects a plane that passes through one of its nappes but the plane is not parallel to an edge of the cone?
Then the intersection is a hyperbola.
What shape is the magnetic field produced when current is passed through wire?
CIRCULAR
Why is bologna shaped like a circle?
When it is produced it is processed through a tube, giving it a circular shape.
What does a traffic signal displaying a steady circular yellow light mean?
A steady circular yellow light on a traffic signal indicates that the signal is about to change to red. Drivers should prepare to stop safely before the intersection if it is safe to do so.
