Answer: The right cylinder is cut with a plane that is neither parallel nor perpendicular to the base.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The intersection of a right cylinder and a plane makes an oval cross section.

The only method to get an oval cross is "the right cylinder is cut with a plane that is neither parallel nor perpendicular to the base."

If the right cylinder is cut with a plane parallel to the base then shape of cross section will be circle.

If the right cylinder is cut with a plane perpendicular to the base and passing through the center then shape of cross section will be rectangle.

If the right cylinder is cut with a plane perpendicular to the base but not passing through the center then again shape of cross section will be rectangle.
