Answer 1

Answer:

I think the answer is Choice C.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a cylinder was sliced perpendicular to its base it would look more like what the picture looks like in the attachment. Good luck!

Answer 2

The shape of the cross-section will be a rectangle.

What is the one shape of cross-section we could create by slicing the cylinder perpendicular to its base?

Notice that along the height of the cylinder, it has a constant radius.

This means that if we cut the cylinder perpendicularly to its base (so we cut it along the height), this cut will give us a cross-section with the shape of a rectangle.

Such that one of the sides is equal to the height of the cylinder and the other side depends on where we cutted the cylinder.

Finally, we conclude that the correct option is A.
