Answer:

for A: it would be a square, if you slice parallel to the side it would cause a square to form

for B) this would create a rhombus because it's slanted from the top left to the bottom right.

for C: the three sides figure would come out to be a triangle bc it starts at an edge and finishes at the other side

Explanation:

I took the grades assignment test!!

A) Slicing straight down on the cube parallel to the side will produce the same shape as the side. It will be a square.

B) Again, this would produce a square. It would just be slanted from the top left to the bottom right.

C) This would be a shape with 3 sides. It would be a triangle. It starts at an edge and finishes at the other side.
