D.when the plane makes a narrow angle with the base

The <u>correct answer</u> is:

D) <span>when the plane makes a narrow angle with the base.

Explanation:

If a cross section of a prism is taken <u>parallel</u> to the base, the cross section will be the <u>same shape</u> as the base.  In this case, it will be a 9 sided polygon.

If a cross section of a prism is taken <u>perpendicular</u> to the base, the cross section will be a <u>rectangle</u>, no matter how many edges the cross section goes through.

The only way to get a cross section with more sides than the original figure is to take a slant cross section, or one with an angle other than 90</span>° or 180° to the base.  This makes D our only option.

Two storage sheds are to have the same area. One is square and one is rectangular. The rectangular shed is 4 meters wide and 9 m
aliina [53]
Area is calculated by taking the length times the width.
A=lxw

one shed is 9 x 4 =36 square feet.
the other shed will be the same but have a four sides equal.
a shed with side of 6 x 6 will have a area of 36 square feet.

one side of the square shed would be 6 feet.

What's a parabola? What's a hyperbola?
Alborosie
Parabola: is a two-dimensional, mirror-symmetrical curve, which is approximately U-shaped when oriented as shown in the diagram below, but which can be in any orientation in its plane. It fits any of several superficially different mathematical descriptions which can all be proved to define curves of exactly the same shape.

Hyperbola:
In mathematics, a hyperbola (plural hyperbolas or hyperbolae) is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set. A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other and resemble two infinite bows
