Can high pressure can change an igneous rock into a sedimentary rock?
No, high pressure alone cannot change an igneous rock into sedimentary rock; however, the reverse is true. High pressure can change sedimentary rock into igneous rock.
What sedimentary rock changes when heat or pressure is added to it?
All sedimentary rock change with heat and pressure. They turn into metamorphic rocks.
Can heat and pressure change the sedimentary rock shale into slate?
No
How do Sedimentary rocks change to Metamorphic?
Sedimentary rocks change to metamorphic the same way any other rock would: through heat and pressure.
Can an exsiting rock change into another type of rock only when it it is subjected to great pressure?
Yes, if you see a sedimentary rock, then that was once a metamorphic rock, because great pressure applied by a mountain or a volcano turned it into a metamorphic rock! :)

What can change a sedimentary rock into a metamorphic rock?
I think pressure
What process can change metamorphic rock into sedimentary?
When the sedimentary rock is going under heat and pressure, turning it into a metamorphic rock.
