transversally
Cutting across diagonally
In a transverse manner—cutting across, lying crosswise, or extending from side to side rather than lengthwise.
The term appears in geometry, anatomy, and technical contexts: The beam runs transversally across the structure.
A plane that passes transversally through an object intersects it at right angles to its main axis.
