I'm a little bit confused.

Match the term with the definition.
Triangle A) perpendicular cross section of a cylinder
Rectangle B) shape created when a right triangle is rotated about the y-axis
Circle C) shape created when a rectangle is rotated about the y-axis
Cylinder D) parallel cross section of a sphere
Cone E) perpendicular cross section of a pyramid

I'm a little bit confused. Match the term with the definition. Triangle A) perpendicular-example-1

Answer:

Explanation:

Perpendicular cross section of a pyramid ------- triangle.

Imagine you cut pyramid like that. Height of pyramid would be height of your triangle. and sides of pyramid would be sides of triangle.

Perpendicular cross section of a cylinder ------- rectangle

diameter of a base of cylinder would be one side of rectangle and height of cylinder would be other side of rectangle. (pair of sides)

parallel cross section of a sphere ------ circle

when you cut sphere a side would appear with shape of circle.

shape create.... ----- cylinder.

one side of rectangle would be high of cylinder and other would be radius of it.

last one is cone. If you place right angle in coordinate beginning (0.0) and one of shorter sides to lie on y axis other would be on x axis. when rotated you get cone.
