#0, Torus cutted up with plane
Posted by Tony (Guest) on Aug-18-01 at 09:18 AM
Dear Sirs,

I have heard something about a puzzle in a M. Gardner's book.
It should exist a solid that when it's cutted ub by a plane returns (on the plane itself)an intersection of two circles. I heard the solid was the torus. But I can't figure out how we could cut it. Any idea?
Sorry for my bad English.
Regards,
Tony
