Question

Suppose that you have a square pyramid like the one pictured. Which plane section will produce a triangle? Question 6 options: A) A cut parallel to the vertical axis, directly through the vertical axis B) A cut parallel to the vertical axis, but off the vertical axis C) A cross section cut parallel with the bottom D) Cutting off one of the bottom corners

Answer 1

The plane that would produce a triangle is A, a cut parallel to the vertical axis, directly through the vertical axis.

What is a squared pyramid?

A square pyramid is a geometric shape having four triangles, five faces and a square.  

Properties of a squared pyramid

• It has a five bases
• It has four or greater equilateral triangular faces meeting above the base
• All the edges, sides and angles are equal

Since the sides are equal, cutting parallel to the vertical axis forms a triangle.

Therefore, a cut parallel to the vertical axis, directly through the vertical axis would produce a triangle.
