Answer:

B. Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

<em>'The plane intersects the rectangular pyramid'.</em>

<h3>'A rectangular pyramid is a three-dimensional object with rectangular as the base and triangles as the sides'.</h3>

<em>So, a plane intersecting a rectangular pyramid horizontally will be parallel to the rectangular base.</em>

Thus, the cross-sectional plane will be a rectangle.

Hence, option B is correct.
