Question

Which three-dimensional figure has a cross section in the shape of a trapezoid if it is sliced by a plane that is parallel to a side other than its base?

Answer 1

The three-dimensional figure that will produce a trapezoid if its cross section was cut by a plane that is not parallel to its base is the rectangular pyramid. If a plane was cut parallel to the base of the pyramid, the shape that would be produced would be a rectangle.
