The figure shows a square pyramid that will be cut into multiple solids by extending the purple and red shapes. Select the solids that will result from the cuts.
The figure shows a square pyramid that will be cut into multiple solids by extending the purple and red shapes. Select the solids that will result from the cuts.
Show Hint
- A
- B
- C
- D
The Correct Option is A, B, C
Solution and Explanation
2. By analyzing the resulting sections from the top view, side view, and isometric view, we can conclude the following:
- The top cut (purple) produces a triangular prism (\(B\)).
- The side cut (red) results in a tetrahedron (\(A\)).
- The base section includes part of the pyramid forming another truncated solid resembling a cuboid-like shape (\(C\)).
3. Option \(D\) represents a complete cube, which does not match any section resulting from the described cuts.
Conclusion: The resulting solids from the cuts are represented by \(A, B, C\).

- A bank needs to upgrade its ATM kiosks to be wheel-chair accessible. An ATM kiosk entrance has four steps rising up to reach the floor level of the kiosk. Each step is 1000 mm in length, 300 mm in breadth, and 150 mm in height. The bank proposes to create a wheel-chair accessible ramp with a slope of 1:12, adjacent to the steps. What is the minimum horizontal length of the ramp in metre? \
