Slicing Shapes in Geometry

The video tutorial explores slicing three-dimensional prisms to reveal two-dimensional shapes. It covers slicing cylinders, rectangular prisms, triangular pyramids, and rectangular pyramids using vertical and horizontal cuts. The video concludes with an advanced question encouraging students to think about the possible prisms that could result in a given two-dimensional shape.
