cross section short Definition

(This is 10th grade math, please don't make it advanced)

A cross section is a two-dimensional shape that is created by cutting through a three-dimensional object at a particular angle or orientation.

A cross section is a two-dimensional shape that is formed by cutting through a three-dimensional object. It represents what you would see if you were to slice the object in a particular direction. Think of it as the shape that is created when you take a "slice" of an object. For example, if you were to cut a cylinder horizontally, the cross section would be a circle. Similarly, if you were to cut a cube vertically, the cross section would be a square.
