Answer:

A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches.

A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches.

A cross section not parallel to the base that passes through opposite 6-inch edges is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by greater than 15 inches. (provided "passes through" means "includes the opposite 6 inch sides in entirety")
