A rectangle is formed when the intercepting plane is parallel to two of the faces of the prism

A triangle is formed when the plane cuts the prism near only one vertex, it is not parallel to the faces and 3 edges are cutted

A line segment is formed when the plane "touches" only one edge of the prism

Answer:

Option A is the correct option.

Since we know the degrees of the circle is 360, add all of the pieces together and set equal to 360
Solving you get x = 15.
When plugging 15 back into each expression we get 90, 160, and 110.
This means the triangle sides are all different so the triangle is scalene.
