It depends how the cone was standing relative to the horizontal plane of the cut:

It will result in:

  • a circle (if the cone is with its circular base in a horizontal plane)
  • a parabola (if the cone is with its circular base is in a vertical plane)
  • an ellipse (if the cone is tilted with its circular base somewhere between a horizontal plane and a vertical plane).
