The two-dimensional shape created by slicing through the rectangular prism at an angle is a parallelogram. When a plane cuts through a prism at an angle (not perpendicular to the base), the intersection forms a parallelogram.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a 3 D rectangular prism lying horizontally along the length as the base. A two dimensional rectangle cuts through the prism from left to right at an angle, cutting through the top left corner of the prism. The lines that are not visible are shown as dashed lines.
What is the two-dimensional shape created by the sliced object?
