Answer:
shape as that of the base of the solid
Explanation:
A solid has a three dimensional shape. A three dimensional shape has both length, breadth and height. If the solid is being cut parallel to the base, a two dimensional shape (has length and width) is formed.
The shape of the two dimensional shape is the same as the shape of the base. Hence if solid is cut parallel to the bases, the shape formed would have the same shape as that of the solid base.
