An image of a rectangular prism is shown below: A rectangular prism is shown.

Part A: If a cross section of the prism is cut perpendicular to the base, what would be the shape of the resulting cross section? Explain your answer. (5 points)

Part B: If a cross section of the prism is cut diagonal to the base, what would be the shape of the resulting cross section? Explain your answer. (5 points)

answer would be 8.64 or s = 11π/4 inches

step-by-step explanation:

s = r θ  

where s = arc length  

r = radius = 3 inches  

θ = central angle in radians = ( π /180)*165  

s = 3(π/180)*165  

= 8.64 inches

step-by-step explanation:

consider the parallelogram shown in the attached image.

in the parallelogram hijk, the length of hk is given as,

from the properties of parallelogram we know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel to each other and are equal in measure.

therefore, the length of the side ij must be equal to the length of the side hk and that is .

hence, the expression for the length of ij confirms that hijk is a parallelogram.

answer: a.12cm
