What is a straight line that joins two points on the circumference of a circle?

A chord is a line that joins to points on the circumference of a circle. If it passes through the center of the circle it's called a diameter.

What is the diameter of a circle?

A chord of a circle is a straight line that joins any two points on the circumference of a circle. The diameter of a circle is the length of the chord that passes through the centre of the circle; it is the chord of longest length and is twice the radius of the circle in length.


What is the line that joins two points on the circle?

That's a 'chord' of the circle.If it passes through the center of the circle, then it's also called a 'diameter'of the circle, and no other chord of that circle can be longer than it is.


What is a line which joins the two points of circumference and passes through the centre of circle is called?

That's the diameter.


Is the radius of a circle a chord also?

No. A chord is a straight line joining two points on the circumference of a circle whereas a radius joins only one point on the circumference to the circle centre. A diameter is a straight line joining two points on the circumference (via the circle's centre) and so is also a chord. (Yes, but the question is about a radius, not a diameter!)

A straight path that extends infinitely in opposite directions?

If a circle has a diameter of 15 inches can it also have a chord of 20 inches and how?

No. A chord is a straight line drawn between any two points on the circumference of a circle. The longest chord is when the points are on opposite sides of the centre of the circle (and passes through the centre of the circle). The straight line which joins the points on opposite sides of the centre (through the centre) is called the diameter of the circle. Therefore the longest chord possible is the diameter of the circle. A circle with a diameter of 15 in can have a chord with a maximum length of 15 in.
