Question

question 4 of 10
the shapes of the horizontal cross - sections of the cone below are not all congruent.
a. true
b. false

Explanation:

Step1: Understand Congruent Shapes

Congruent shapes have same size and shape.

Step2: Analyze Cone's Horizontal Cross - sections

For a cone, horizontal cross - sections are circles. But as we move up the cone (from base to apex), the radius of these circular cross - sections decreases. So, their sizes are different. Since they don't have the same size, they are not congruent.

Answer:

A. True
