Answer:

The object that is produced from this intersection is:

Parabola.

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersection of this given plane and a cone will form a parabola.

( Since a circle is formed when the plane is parallel to the base of a cone.

Hyperbola is formed when a plane cuts both the napes of a cone by some angle.

and a ellipse is formed when the plane cuts both the slant height of one nape of a cone )
