A straight line that intersects a circle in two places is a chord.
If the chord passes through the centre of the circle that it becomes a diameter.
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.
tangent
a chord is a line segment and its endpoints are on the circle. a secant line is a "line" (meaning it is continuous and has no end points) that intersects a circle (in two places if that's not obvious). > > > Beans63
A chord
A circle can have a maximum of two intercepts with a straight line. This occurs when the line intersects the circle at two distinct points. If the line is tangent to the circle, it will have one intercept, and if it does not intersect at all, it will have zero intercepts.
A chord is a line segment whose endpoints lie on a circle. A secant is a line (or line segment) that intersects a circle in two places, endpoints NOT on the circle.
A chord line intersects a circle at two points of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
A tangent line. A line that intersects a circle at two points is a secant.
A line segment that intersects with or joins two points on a circle is called a chord.
It's called a chord. The longest chord is known as the diameter.
No. A tangent touches the circle at exactly one point. A line that intersects a circle at exactly two points is a secant.
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.
