Answer 1

Answer:

  B. an octagon

  C. a decagon

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube has six (6) plane faces, so any plane slice can intersect at most all 6 of those faces, creating a hexagon. No plane figure with more than 6 sides can be created by slicing a cube with a plane.

Cannot be created:

• octagon
• decagon
