This question is poorly worded: depending on one's definition, a circle has only one side, since a circle lacks angles (or, depending on one's definition, has an infinite number of angles) to differentiate one 'side' from another. Presumably, the person asking meant distance between two points on a circle.

A straight line between any two points of a circle is called a chord. A chord (or the length of a chord) which passes through the exact center of the circle is called a diameter, which is the longest-length chord possible for a circle. A half-diameter is called a radius, which would be the distance between the exact center of circle and the circle itself.
