Question

What is the shape of the cross section taken perpendicular to the base of a cylinder?

Circle
Rectangle
Ellipse
Triangle

Answer 1

rectangle

Explanation:

the question is asking what the shape of the cross section would be if it was perpendicular to the base. imagine a cylinder that you could slide a piece of paper into. what would be inside the cylinder? perpendicular to the base, it would be a rectangle. if it was parallel to the base, you'd then have a circle.

Answer 2

I think it is a rectangle since the base is a circle
