Answer:
The fill in the blank is the word similar.
Explanation:
A pyramid has a cross-sectional shapes, taken parallel to its base, that are similar to one another.
When we do the cross-section of a pyramid parallel to its base, the cross-section formed will be in the same shape like the base.
Whenever a cross section is done parallel to the base of any pyramid, the resulting shape will be same like the base. As we move up in the pyramid and cross section it, the shape formed will be like the base but with smaller dimensions. But the shape will be the same as the base.
