A pentagonal prism is cut by a plane perpendicular to the base. What is the shape of the cross section that is formed?

a pentagon with one pair of equal sides

a trapezoid with one pair of parallel sides

a rectangle

a triangle

a hexagon

Verified Answer :

If it is a right prism, then the cross-section area will be considered a rectangle. Each lateral face will be perpendicular to the base, and if we cut the plane it will be perpendicular to the bases and the resulting angles of the cross-section would all be simply right angles. 
Hence,
The best Answer would be third Option: A RECTANGLE.
