What is a line that hits a circle at two points?
A chord is a straight line within a circle that divides the circle into two parts - these parts are called arcs.The diameter is a chord that runs through the centre of the circle and divides the circle into two equal parts.
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.

How do you divide a circle in to 5 equal parts?
The number of degrees in one complete revolution of a radius is 360°. Therefore the number of degrees covered in 1/5 of a revolution is 72° . To divide a circle into 5 equal parts create 5 sectors each measuring 72° at the centre of the circle.

it is a circle graph

Is a circle a rhombus?
No. A rhombus has four equal straight sides. A circle has no straight parts.

What is the measure of the angle by the straight sides of the circle divided into 5 equal parts?
A circle has no straight sides but if you mean a circle that has been divided into 5 equal sectors then the angle of each sector is 72 degrees subtended by each arc of the circle.

Dividig circle into 18 equal parts how many degrees for 5 of the parts?
5 out of 18 parts is 5/18. Multiply that by 360, since that's the number of degrees in a full circle.

What name is given to the line that traces the edge of a circle?
The curved line that traces the boundary or perimeter of a circle is called the circumference. A straight line that touches the circle at just one point is called a tangent. See the related link, 'The Parts of the Circle', below this answer.
