A cross section is made by the intersection of a plane and a square pyramid at an angle either parallel or perpendicular to the base. The cross section can be which of these shapes? Select three options. square triangle trapezoid circle non-square rectangle

Answer :

Answer:

i. square

ii. triangle

iii. trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

A cross section of a figure or shape can be produced by cutting a slice through the figure.

From the given question, since the angle of intersection of the planes could either be parallel or perpendicular to the base, the cross section could either be a square, a triangle or a trapezoid.

A square is generated when the angle is parallel to the base, a triangle could also be produced when the angle is perpendicular to the base, and a  trapezoid is formed when the angle is perpendicular to the base.
