What is a line that connects a point on a circle to the center of a circle?

The RADIUS. Other nomenclature for a circle are:- Diameter ; Two radii forming a straight line through the circle centre. Chord ; A straight line from one point on the circle to another point on the circle that does NOT pass through the circle centre. Arc ; Part of the circumference. Segment ; An area inside the circle bounded by two radii and an arc. Tangent ' A line just touching the circle's circumference in ONE place. NB The plural of the noun 'Radius' is 'RADII' , not radiuses. 'Radii' is pronounced 'Ray- dee - eye'. NNB 'pi' is the Classical Greek small case letter 'p' , for 'proportion. It is an Irrational number, but for elementary(school) purposes it is given as the approximation '3.14' or '22/7' Being an Irrational number means the decimals are NOT in any regular order and go to infinity. pi ~ 3.141592.....
