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.
No, not all chords of a circle pass though the center of that circle. Any cord that does pass through the center of the circle is called diameter of that circle.
Yes a diameter will ALWAYS pass through the center
The diameter of a circle is a circle's largest chord.
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.
Half a line through a circle is called a "diameter" if it passes through the center of the circle, dividing it into two equal halves. If it does not pass through the center, it is referred to as a "chord." A diameter is the longest chord of the circle, while any chord that does not pass through the center is simply a shorter segment of the circle.

No, a secant line does not pass through the center of a circle. A secant line is a line that intersects a circle in two distinct points. Only a line passing through the center of a circle is called a diameter.
Not true because only the largest chord passes through the center of a circle which is its diameter
Diameter of a circle is a line that goes from one side of the circle, passes through the center of the circle, and touches the other side of the circle. So a circle could have a diameter of length 2 inches, or maybe 7 feet, etc. If the line does not pass through the center of the circle, it is not a diameter.
Yes. In geometry, a diameter of a Circleis any straight Line_segmentthat passes through the center of the circle and whose endpoints are on the circle.
The secant of a circle passes through the center of a circle sometimes
That's a 'chord' of a circle. If the chord happens to pass through the center of the circle, then it's called a 'diameter', and no chord of the same circle can be longer.
