Question

What is the shape of the cross section of the cylinder in each situation?

Answer 1

Answer: The first box is circle and second box is rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are asking about the shape of the cross section for a right circular cylinder, that is the case. A parabola or triangle can't be sliced so the cross section is parallel or perpendicular to the base.

If the cross section is parallel to the base, it is a circle.

If the cross section is perpendicular to the base, it is a rectangle.
