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.
Assume that two chords in a given circle are the same distance from the center of the circle Which of the following must also be true?
They must be congruent.
Could you explain the radius of a circle?
The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to the outer edge Also known as half of the diameter. The diameter is the distance from opposite edges of the circle going through the centre.
What is a segment whose endpoints are on a circle?
A chord. a diameter also has endpoints on a circle, the only difference is a diameter goes through the center point and a chord doesnt have to go through the center. a diameter is considered a chord.
A line segment that extends from one edge of a circle to the other and passes through its center is also its?
It is diameter.
The center of a great circle is also the center of a small circle?
If talking in terms of the shortest distance around a sphere, the answer is NO.
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.
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.
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.
Can a chord of a circle also be the diameter of the circle?
Sure. Any chord that passes through the center of the circle is also a diameter. Chords can have many different lengths, but a diameter is the longest chord.
How do you draw a great circle in 3 dimensional sphere?
A great circle is any circle whose center is also the center of the sphere. You could try this way: Spread ink on a sheet of paper. Set the sphere on the paper so that it picks up a mark from the ink, and at the same time, place a mark on the highest point of the sphere. Then draw any circle on the sphere that includes those two points. As we read the question, we were fascinated by the implication that you have spheres with more or less than 3 dimensions.
What does diamater mean?
The diameter is the chord (line that goes from the circle to the circle) that goes through the center of the circle. It is the largest chord. It is also equal to twice the radius.
