Rotation and Cross Section

Figures A and B are 3-D objects. The cross-section of figure A that is parallel to it’s base is the same geometric shape as the cross-section of figure B that is perpendicular to figure B’s base. Based on this information, which of these pairs of 3-D shapes could describe figure A and figure B?

• figure A: rectangular prism; figure B: square pyramid

• figure A: rectangular prism; figure B: cylinder

• figure A: cone; figure B: square pyramid

• figure A: cone; figure B: cylinder
