a (n) is produced when you slice a cone with a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone

The conic section formed by the cone and a plane parallel to its base is a circle.

A circle will be produced when slicing a cone with a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone.

Given that,
The shape will be produced when you slice a cone with a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone is to be determined.

What is a circle?

The circle is the locus of a point whose distance from a fixed point is constant i.e center (h, k). The equation of the circle is given by

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r².
where h, k is the coordinate of the center of the circle on coordinate plane and r is the radius of the circle.

Since the base of the cone is a circle and when preceding to top of cone this circle shrinks concentrically, that why, when the plane parallel to base sliced the cone the shape produced is also a circle.

Thus, a circle will be produced when slicing a cone with a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone.
