Why is the following a poor definition for a diameter. A diameter is a line segment with both endpoints on a circle.?

Some segments with both endpoints on a circle are not diameters.

A line segment with both endpoints on a circle is a?
The correct term for a line segment with both endpoints on a circle is a chord. The diameter of a circle is also a chord.
What is a line segment whose endpoints are on the circle passing through the center point?
Diameter.
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 segment has how many endpoints?
two endpoints
Can a line segment have 2 endpoints?
a line segment is part of a line that does not continue infinetely. therefore it has endpoints on both sides. by default a line segment has 2 endpoints, it is not a question if it 'can' have 2 endpoints.
A line segment with both endpoints on the circle is a?
diameter
What is the geometric definition of a segment?
A line segment's length is restricted by its endpoints
What does length of a segment mean?
The definition for length of segment is the distance between the endpoints of s segment
What is a segment that passes through the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle?
A diameter is a segment that passes through the center of a circle and has both endpoints on the circle.
A line segment with both endpoints on a circle is a?
The correct term for a line segment with both endpoints on a circle is a chord. The diameter of a circle is also a chord.
Segment through the center of a circle with endpoints on the circle?
That's a "diameter" of the circle.
A line segment that passes through the center of a circle and has endpoints on the circle?
the answer is the diameter
What is a line segment whose endpoints are on the same circle?
A chord or the circle's diameter.
What is a segment that contains the center of the circle and has both endpoints on the circle known as?
It is the diameter.
What is a line segment whose endpoints are on the circle passing through the center point?
Diameter.
What is a segment that has both endpoints on a circle?
A chord of which the circle's diameter is the largest chord
What is a line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has its endpoints on the circle?
This is called "diameter"
