The two-dimensional shape created by slicing a right rectangular pyramid from the side is a triangle. When you cut through the pyramid from one of the vertices to the opposite edge, you typically obtain a triangle.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a slide slice where a trapezoidal plane with a square frame is inserted into a 3 D pyramid through two of the corners. It is inserted midway on the slanting sides. The lines not visible are in dashed lines.
