<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

In order to obtain the rectangular cross-section on this cake we need to do slicing:

Parallel to the base.

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

We know that when slicing is done parallel to the base than we get a cross-section that is similar to the base ( i.e. of same shape and size).

Hence, here we have a cake in shape of a rectangular prism or we may say a cuboid so in order to get the rectangular cross-section we need to cut this cake parallel to the base.

Hence, the answer is:

Parallel to the base.
