Does a cross section always have to be horizontal or vertical?
No. Some of the classic curves studied by mathematicians: ellipses, hyperbola are cross sections of a cone taken at an angle.
What is the horrizontal cross section of a cone?
If it a right cone then it is a circle, otherwise an ellipse.
What is the horizontal cross section of a cone?
Circle
What is the vertical cross section of a rectangular prism?
It is a rectangle.
What does a cone prism look like?
By definition, the circular cross-section of a cone changes linearly in width as you go along its axis. By definition, the cross-section of a prism is constant along its axis. So, by definition, a cone prism is an impossible shape.
What is the vertical cross section of a cone?
The vertical cross section of a right vertical cone is a triangle if that cross section is taken from the vertex. Any other vertical cross section will reveal a hyperbola (with endpoints on the base of the cone). A link can be found below.
Given a cone with a radius of 2 feet and a height of 9 feet what shape is formed by a perpendicular cross section through the cone's center?
The cross section will be a triangle with base 2 feet and a vertical height of 9 feet.
Does a cross section always have to be horizontal or vertical?
No. Some of the classic curves studied by mathematicians: ellipses, hyperbola are cross sections of a cone taken at an angle.
What is the cross section of the cone?
Circle
What is the parallel cross section of a cone?
The answer depends on the angle at which the axis of the cone intersects the cross-sections.
What is the horrizontal cross section of a cone?
If it a right cone then it is a circle, otherwise an ellipse.
What is the shape of the base cross section of a cone?

What is the horizontal cross section of a cone?
Circle
What does cone cylinder and a sphere have in common?
A circular cross-section.
What shape is cross section of a cone?
It depends on the angular plane of the Cross-section, to the conic axis. The conic-axis is a line from the point of the cone to the centre of a circular cross-section. #1 ; Cross section perpendicular to the acix is a CIRCLE. #2 ; Cross section angled to ther sides of the cone is an ELLIPSE #3 ; Cross section were the ends do not touch the circular face is a PARABOLA #4 ' Cross sectional plane which is parallel to the axis is a HYPERBOLA. The Cartesian Equations for each type are ;- #1 ; Circle ' x^(2) + y^(2) = 1 #2 ; Ellipse ' x^(2)/a^(2) + y^(2)/b^(2) = 1 #3 ; Parabola ' y^(2) = 4ax #4 ; Hyperbola ' x^(2)/a^(2) - y^(2)/b^(2) = 1
