QuestionWhat shape best describes the cross-section cut perpendicular to the base of a right rectangular prism? (5 points) 1) Parallelogram 2) Trapezoid 3) Rectangle 4) Rhombus

Studdy Solution
Determine the shape of the cross-section when cut perpendicular to the base:
When a right rectangular prism is cut perpendicular to its base, the cross-section is parallel to the side faces of the prism. Since the side faces are rectangles, the cross-section will also be a rectangle.
The shape that best describes the cross-section cut perpendicular to the base of a right rectangular prism is:
$$\boxed{\text{Rectangle}}$$
