What do you call a segment that passes through the center of a circle?
The major segment.
What is a line through a circle that does not go through the center?
A line through a circle that does not go through the center of the circle is a secant line. A line through a circle that does go through the center is still a secant line, by the way. Compare this to a line segment that has its two endpoints on the circumference of the circle. That line segment is a cord of the circle. If that cord of the circle passes through the center of the circle, then the cord is a diameter of that circle.
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.
What is a line segment that passes through the center of a circle and hasendpoints that lie in a circle is a?
It is the diameter of the circle.
A straight line across a circle through the centre?
Line through the center of a circle is the diameter or distance across the circle.
What is a segment that passes through the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle?
A diameter is a segment that passes through the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle.

Segment through the center of a circle with endpoints on the circle?
That's a "diameter" of the circle.
What is the distance across a circle through the center called?
it is called a diameter.The diameter !I think this answers your question:A segment whose end points both rest on the same circle and which passes through the center of the same circle is called the circle's diameter.a line from the edge of a circle through the center to the other side is the diameterRadiusDiameter
