Two possible shapes are ...

1. point - slicing the cone at its apex, perpendicular to the axis of symmetry (degenerate circle)

2. 2 intersecting lines - slicing the cone on its axis of symmetry (degenerate hyperbola)

_____

More conventional cross sections include a circle (⊥ to axis), ellipse (between ⊥ to axis and parallel to side), parabola (parallel to side), hyperbola (oblique to side up to and including parallel to axis), line (tangent to side).

Answer:

1. Adjacent and formed a linear pair

2. Adjacent and formed a linear pair

3. Adjacent

4. Not adjacent

Step-by-step explanation:

In essence, adjacent angles are two angles side by side. Two adjacent angles can form a linear pair when they are created by two lines intersecting. So, in broad terms, they are adjacent on a flat plane (or a straight line), and together they make a 180° angle.
