Is the center of a great circle also the center of a small circle?
No. Every circle on the sphere whose center is also the center of the sphere is a great circle. If the circle's center is not also the center of the sphere, then the circle is a small circle.
What is difference between great circle and small circle?
A great circle is a circle on the surface of a sphere that has the same center as the sphere, while a small circle does not share the same center as the sphere. Great circles have the largest circumference of all circles on a sphere, whereas small circles have smaller circumferences. The equator is an example of a great circle on Earth, while lines of latitude other than the equator are examples of small circles.
Can the diameter of a circle pass through the center of a circle?
A diameter of a circle must pass through the center of that circle. A cord is a line segment that has its endpoints on the circumference of a circle. It can be any line segment. If that cord also passes through the center of the circle, it is said to be a diameter of that circle. A diameter of a circle is the longest cord of the circle.
Can a chord of a circle also be a diameter of a circle?
Yes because the diameter of a circle is its largest chord passing through the center of the circle.
Segment that has one endpiont at the center and the other endpoint on the circle?
A radius of a circle is a line segment joining the center of the circle to a point on the circle. All such segments have the same length, and this length also called the radius of the circle.
Does a cord that is a diameter always pass through the center of the circle?
Yes, a cord that is a diameter always passes through the center of a circle. And it's also the longest cord of that circle.
What is the midpoint of symmetry of a circle?
The midpoint of symmetry of a circle is its center. A circle is symmetric around its center, meaning that for any point on the circumference, the point directly opposite to it (across the center) is also on the circumference. This property holds true for all points on the circle, illustrating its uniform symmetry.
If a circle is inscribed in a triangle the center of the circle is called?
The center of the circle inscribed in a triangle is called the incenter. It is the point where the angle bisectors of the triangle intersect and is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle. The incenter is also the center of the incircle, which is the largest circle that can fit inside the triangle.
Why is the equator called the great circles?
The reason they call the equator the great circle is because circles the whole earth in the middle.becase its the only line that runs in the centre of the earth and goes right arround . {nickstar}
What is a radius circle?
If you mean "what is the radius of a circle", then the answer is the line segment or length from the center of circle to the set of points that form the circle. The radius is also half of the diameter.
Does a chord always sometimes or never passes through the center of the circle?
A chord does not always pass through the center of the circle; it only does so in specific cases. A chord that is also a diameter of the circle passes through the center. However, other chords can exist within the circle that do not intersect the center. Thus, a chord can sometimes pass through the center, but it is not a requirement.
Is every chord of a circle also a diameter?
No. The chord is a diameter only if it passes through the center of the circle. In that case,it's also the longest that any chord can possibly be in that circle.
