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.
A chord line intersects a circle at two points of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
A line segment that intersects with or joins two points on a circle is called a chord.
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.
It is a chord of which the circle's diameter is the largest
A line segment joining two points on the circumference of a circle and the diameter is the largest chord in a circle.
A chord line intersects a circle at two points of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
A straight line joining points on a circle is called a "chord" of that circle. If the line happens to pass through the center of the circle, then it's a "diameter" of that circle. The question asked about "points" on a circle, so two points on the circumference of that circle are being considered. (No line can join more than two points of a circle.)
A chord is a line which connects two points which lie on a circle.
No. A tangent touches the circle at exactly one point. A line that intersects a circle at exactly two points is a secant.
A line segment that intersects with or joins two points on a circle is called a chord.
A straight line that intersects a circle's circumference at two points will create a chord of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
A secant line.
A line that connects two points on the circumference of a circle or on the line of an ellipse is called a "chord." The longest chord of a circle passes through the two points that are furthest apart, and it is caled a "diameter."
tangent
Regardless of where you mark two points on a circle, there's only one possible line segment between them. It's called a "chord" of the circle.
A line can be tangent to a circle in which case it intersects it in one point, it can intersect it in two points, or no points at all. So the choices are 0,1 or 2.
A chord and the diameter is the largest chord of a circle. A2. Remember, the circle is the bit inside the curved line, NOT the curved line. [A circle is bounded by ... .] From any two points on a circle, you could erect a variety of lines, of which the shortest for any given quest would be a straight line. The other natural line joining two points would be the arc joining two points on the perimeter of a circle. * * * * * Actually, I believe that a circle IS the curved line. A circle is defined as the locus of all points that are at a constant distance from a fixed point (the centre). This is the boundary of the circle, not its interior.
