What else can I help you with?
Brad cuts a triangular prism with a plane parallel to the base of the prism. What will the shape of the cross section be?
Triangular
What is a prism with a cross-section of a right angled triangle?
A right-angled triangular prism!
Can a triangular prism roll?
No, a triangular prism cannot roll because it does not have a circular cross-section like a cylinder or a sphere. Rolling requires a continuous curved surface that can rotate around an axis. A triangular prism has a polygonal cross-section with flat sides, so it would slide rather than roll.
Which formula would you use to find the volume of a triangular prism?
Volume of a triangular prism = cross-section area times length
Why is a cube a prism?
A prism has the same cross section throughout its length no matter what form it may take i.e. a cubic prism, a cuboid prism, a triangular prism, a hexagonal prism, a cylindrical prism etc.
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 polygon makes a triangular prism?
A triangle forms the cross-section of a triangular prism.
Can a parallelogram be a cross section of a triangular prism?
Yes, a parallelogram can be a cross section of a triangular prism. When you slice through a triangular prism parallel to the base (the triangular face), the resulting cross section will be a parallelogram. This occurs because the opposite sides of the cut will be equal and parallel, characteristic of a parallelogram.
Can a paraellgram be a cross section of a triangular prism?
Yes, it can.
What shape is the cross section drawn through the prism?
Answer 1A triangle. Answer 2For a triangular prism, the cross section is a triangle.
What makes triangle prism a triangle prism?
It has triangular bases and a triangular cross-section across its main axis.
Brad cuts a triangular prism with a plane parallel to the base of the prism. What will the shape of the cross section be?
Triangular
Can a triangular prism have a rectangular base or does this mean it is in fact a pyramid?
A prism can have a triangular cross-section with a rectangular base
Is a parallelogram cannot be a cross section of a triangular prism true?
The statement is true; a parallelogram cannot be a cross section of a triangular prism. The cross sections of a triangular prism are typically triangular or trapezoidal, depending on the orientation of the cut. While a parallelogram can be formed by certain cuts through a prism, in the case of a triangular prism, the specific shape of the bases (triangles) and the lateral faces (rectangles) restrict the cross sections to triangles and trapezoids.
What is the horizontal cross section of triangular prism?
The horizontal cross section of a triangular prism is a triangle. When you make a horizontal cut through the prism, the shape of the cut reflects the shape of the triangular base, which is consistent throughout the height of the prism. Therefore, regardless of where the cut is made along the height, the cross section will always be a triangle identical to the base.
Do the vertical cross sectional shapes of a triangular prism have all congruent triangles?
Yes the triangular cross-section area is congruent throughput the prism.
What is a prism with a cross-section of a right angled triangle?
A right-angled triangular prism!
