Answer 9

A hexagon has 6 sides... this one only has 5

Answer 10

Pentagon is correct.

Answer 11

sorry but the computer says its wrong...

Answer 12

The plane cut at an angle the cross section had 6 sides not 5.. just because the pyramid had a pentagonal base doesn't mean thats what the cross-section will be.

Answer 13

Well that's the first hexagon I have ever seen with 5-sides lol. Hmm, maybe physics no longer applies to real life anymore... let me check...
