I apologize for the error in my initial response.
When a rectangular prism is sliced vertically, perpendicular to the base, the two-dimensional shape formed will be a rectangle. This is because the cross-section will be the same shape as the base of the prism. Since the base of a rectangular prism is a rectangle, the resulting shape of the vertical slice will also be a rectangle.
