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.
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.
They must be congruent.
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.
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.
It is diameter.
If talking in terms of the shortest distance around a sphere, the answer is NO.
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.
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.
Yes because the diameter of a circle is its largest chord passing through the center of 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.
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.
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.
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}
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.
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.
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.
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.
