Question

A cone is sliced so the cross section is parallel to its base.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option 1 - Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  A cone is sliced so the cross section is parallel to its base.

To find : What is the shape of the cross section?

Solution :

When a cone is cut in such a way that the cross-section is perpendicular to the base and it passes through the vertex.

The shape of cross section formed is a triangle.

Refer the attached figure below.

The figure thus formed after cutting is in the shape of a triangle.

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

Answer 2

The shape of the cross-section formed is a triangle, when a cone is cut in such a way that the cross-section is perpendicular to the base and it passes through the vertex.
