Answer:

sorry im late to this but it is a triangle

Explanation:

because when you cut it horizontally and look at the top it is a rectangle so that is wrong trapezoid is when you look at it from the side when cut horizontally so that is wrong there is no square so that instantly becomes wrong because it is a rectangular pyramid when perpendicular it will provide you with a triangle
