Describe at least one similarity between pyramid cross sections and prism cross sections.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A prism and a pyramid both have three dimensions: they both have a cross section and a height.. Mathematically speaking, a cross section is a plane formed by cutting across a solid. When you cut a prism and a pyramid across, you have a plane. Because both solids are three-dimensional, both can hold solid, liquid and gas, and you can calculate their volume from mathematical formulas.

The cross section of a pyramid shrinks from the shape of the base down to a point as you move along its axis from the base to the apex. The cross section of a prism is constant along its axis.
