The answer is triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a solid is sliced and the resulting shape that we see is cross section of the initial shape. A solid has different cross sections depending on where it is being sliced. When a right square pyramid is sliced through its apex and perpendicular to its base, the resulting shape will be a triangle.
