To determine which figures cannot be made by slicing through a cube, we need to understand the properties of a cube and how it can be sliced.
A cube is a three-dimensional shape with six equal square faces. When slicing through a cube, we can create various cross-sections depending on the angle and position of the slice.
Let's analyze each option to see which figures cannot be made by slicing through a cube:
A. A square: Since a cube has six square faces, slicing through a cube can easily create a square cross-section. Therefore, a square can be made by slicing through a cube. So, option A is not the correct answer.
B. An octagon: An octagon is a polygon with eight sides. When slicing through a cube, it is not possible to create an octagon as a cross-section. Therefore, an octagon cannot be made by slicing through a cube.
C. A decagon: A decagon is a polygon with ten sides. Similar to option B, slicing through a cube cannot result in a decagon cross-section. Thus, a decagon cannot be made by slicing through a cube.
D. A rectangle: A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. When slicing through a cube, it is possible to create a rectangle cross-section. Therefore, a rectangle can be made by slicing through a cube. So, option D is not the correct answer.
E. A triangle: A triangle is a polygon with three sides. Slicing through a cube can result in a triangle cross-section depending on the angle and position of the slice. Thus, a triangle can be made by slicing through a cube. So, option E is not the correct answer.
To summarize, the figures that cannot be made by slicing through a cube are:
B. An octagon
C. A decagon
