Question

1 matching 2 points what happens when a square prism is cut this way? parallel to the base square perpendicular to the base rectangle 2 matching 2 points what happens when a cylinder is cut this way? parallel to the base circle perpendicular to the base rectangle 3 hot spot 3 points answer the following: given the 3d shape below, which of the following 2d shapes would result from the following slices. complete the table.

Explanation:

1. For a square - prism, when cut parallel to the base, the cross - section is a square as it has square bases. When cut perpendicular to the base, the cross - section is a rectangle because the sides of the prism are rectangles.
2. For a cylinder, when cut parallel to the base, the cross - section is a circle as the bases are circular. When cut perpendicular to the base, the cross - section is a rectangle as it shows the height and the diameter of the circular base.

Answer:

1. Parallel to the base: Square

Perpendicular to the base: Rectangle

1. Parallel to the base: Circle

Perpendicular to the base: Rectangle
