Acone is cut by a plane parallel to the slant height of the cone. what is the shape of the cross section that is formed

We get a PARABOLA when we cut the cone parallel to slant height.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a cone.

We need to tell the shape of the cross section formed when a plane cut eh cone parallel to the slant height.

When a plane cut the cone parallel to slant height we get a shape which has a vertex on one side and open from other side.

This shape represent a Parabola.

Therefore, We get a PARABOLA when we cut the cone parallel to slant height.

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
