A metamorphic rock.
When sedimentary rock is changed by heat and pressure, it forms metamorphic rock. This process is known as metamorphism, where the existing rock undergoes changes in mineral composition and texture without melting.
When sedimentary rock is changed by heat and pressure, it forms metamorphic rock. This process, known as metamorphism, alters the mineral composition, texture, and structure of the original sedimentary rock. Some common examples of metamorphic rocks formed from sedimentary rocks include marble from limestone and slate from shale.

It's the other way around: How does a sedimentary rocks turn into a metamorphic rocks? The answers is: "By heat and pressure". Metamorphic rocks never turn into sedimentary rocks.
The rock that has been changed by extreme pressure or heat is called metamorphic rock. It can form from igneous, sedimentary, or existing metamorphic rocks that undergo changes in temperature and pressure deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
Metamorphic rocks originate as igneous and sedimentary rocks, but have been changed by heat and pressure.
Sedimentary rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure, while igneous rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks through the same process. Both types of rocks can also be weathered and eroded, leading to the formation of new sedimentary rocks.
