A line that intersects a circle in two places?
A straight line that intersects a circle in two places is a chord.If the chord passes through the centre of the circle that it becomes a diameter.
What is difference between chord and secant?
a chord is a line segment and its endpoints are on the circle. a secant line is a "line" (meaning it is continuous and has no end points) that intersects a circle (in two places if that's not obvious). > > > Beans63
What is the radius of a circle in cm whose circumference passes through the points of -1 7 and 5 -5 and whose centre is at the origin on the Cartesian plane?
Using the distance formula:- Distance from (0, 0) to (-1, 7) = square root of 50 which is the radius Distance from (0, 0) to (5, -5) = square root of 50 which is the radius Therefore radius of the circle = square root of 50 or 7.07 cm rounded to two decimal places
What is circle with diameter 15?
Circumference of circle: 15*pi = 47.124 cm rounded to 3 decimal places Area of circle: pi*7.5 squared = 176.715 square cm rounded to 3 decimal places
What is Circle with diameter 15 cm?
Circumference of circle: 15*pi = 47.124 cm rounded to 3 decimal places Area of circle: pi*7.5 squared = 176.715 square cm rounded to 3 decimal places
A secant is a line or segment that passes through a circle in one and only one place?
It would be False because a secant is a line or segment that passes through a circle in two places.
What is a diameter of 100 yards?
A diameter is a line segment that joins two the edge of a circle in two places and passes through the circle's center. A diameter of one yard is equivalent to a diameter of three feet, or about a meter.
What places does the Antarctic Circle pass through?

A line that intersects a circle in two places?
A straight line that intersects a circle in two places is a chord.If the chord passes through the centre of the circle that it becomes a diameter.
A segment with endpoints on a circle?
A chord is a line segment whose endpoints lie on a circle. A secant is a line (or line segment) that intersects a circle in two places, endpoints NOT on the circle.
What is the radius of a circle with the center (310) that passes through (1212)?
If you mean a center of (3, 10) passing through (12, 12) then the radius is the square root of 85 which is about 9.2195 rounded to four decimal places.

What is a chord of a circle?
A chord of a circle is a line segment drawn from any point on the curcumference of the circle to any other point on the circumference of the circle. The chord may pass through the center of the circle, in which case it is the diameter of the circle. The length of the chord will less than or equal to the diameter of the circle but greater than zero. If you draw a circle and start drawing chords, you'll quickly discover that there are an infinite number of unique chords that can be drawn in that circle. A link can be found below, and you can gather more information with the "click" of your mouse.
