How many straight lines can be drawn inside a circle to dissect it?

There really is no specific number or in other words an infinite number of lines can be used to disect a circle. a line only has to go through the center of the circle to disect it. but the angle at which you draw the line can vary every time. it just depends how precise you want to get. Basically; between two lines, there will always be room another line, even if it gets to microscopic proportions.

What is a Chords in circles?
A chord is a straight line drawn through a circle which divides the circle into two parts. The line can be drawn anywhere in the circle EXCEPT the center where it becomes the diameter.

Does a zigzag line drawn inside a circle represent a type of switch?
True
How is a diameter worked out?
A circle has an infinite number if diameters, but they are all the same length. The length of the diameter of a circle is the length of the longest straight line that can be drawn completely inside the circle. If the center of the circle is marked, then it's easy to draw a line that is a diameter ... it's any line that passes through the center of the circle.
What is radius equals 12 inches?
Every circle has a point called the centre. A straight line drawn through the centre and extending both ways to intersect with the circle at opposite points is called the diameter. A straight line drawn from the centre to intersect with one point of the circle is called the radius. In this case, the length of that straight line is 12 inches.
What is circumscribed area and inscribed area of regular polygon?
circumscribed means the polygon is drawn around a circle, and inscribed means the polygon is drawn inside the circle. See related links below for polygon circumscribed about a circle and polygon inscribed in a circle.
How many diagonals does a circle have?
If you are referring to the segment passing through the center of the circle and touching the circumference of the circle then it's the diameter of the circle.There can be infinite diameters drawn inside a circle.
How many tangents can be drawn to a circle containing a point inside the circle?
None can. A tangent is a line that touches a circle at only one point. If it wentthrough a point inside the circle, then it would have to touch the circle at twopoints ... one on the way in and another one on the way out.
Is a zigzag line drawn inside a circle represents a type of a swicth in a circuit diagram?
An electrical resistor.
