Question

A square pyramid is sliced downward, through the top vertex, by a plane. What is the shape of the resulting two dimensionalfigure?-)))A)circleB)rectangleC)squareD)triangle

Answer 1

In this case, we have a right triangle. To find the area of this kind of triangle, we can use the formula:

• A = 1/2 * (b) * (h)

Where b is one of the sides, and, h, is the other side (or leg).

Therefore, the correct option is C.
