Cross Sections of Three-Dimensional Figures

3-Dimensional figures can be cut by planes. When you cut a 3-D figure by a plane, the result is a 2-D figure.
A cross section is the shape formed when a plane intersects a 3D figure. Think of a very thin slice of the solid.
The cross-sections of 3-D figures are 2 dimensional figures you are familiar with like polygons and circlesTell the shape it makes when you cut the solid Look at the example on the next page to help your understanding.

A horizontal cross-section of a cone is a circle.
Can you describe a vertical cross-section of a cone?

A vertical cross-section of a cone is a triangle.

A water tower is built in the shape of a cylinder.
How does the horizontal cross-section compare to the vertical cross-section?

The horizontal cross-section is a circle.The vertical cross-section is a rectangle

Cross Sections
• Recall that bases are opposite faces that are parallel and congruent.
• To describe the relationship between the plane and the solid, it will be either:– Parallel to the base or – Perpendicular to the base
