The distance of two points of the circle is called as perimeter. Since these two points are located on the same circle, their peripheral distance is measured.
On the circle, an arc. Cutting across the circle, a chord.
In plane geometry, the shortest distance between two points is a line. In spherical geometry, the shortest distance between two points is a segment of a great circle. The distance between one point and another is known as the displacement.

Measure the distance between the two end points!

The two points and the centre of the earth define a plane, and the intersection of this plane with the surface of the earth is a circle - the "Great Circle". The shortest distance between the two points is the smaller of the two arcs on this circle.

A circle is the set of all points in two dimensional space that are at the same distance from some fixed point.
Infinity Incorrect ! The longest distance between those two points is a straight line from one point , running all the way around the world to the second point. Thus the shortest distance together with the longest distance is a full circle around the world with both points on the circle.
Never. The radius of a circle is the distance (in a straight line) from the exact center to any edge point, the distance across the circle(between two edge points)through the center point, is the diameter and the distance around the end is the circumference. http://www.mathopenref.com/
This is the center of the circle. From the center of the circle, all the points on the circle are equally distant.
In three dimensions, the solid defined as being bound by the set of points at a given distance form a point is a sphere. In two dimensions, the figure defined as being bound by the set of points at a given distance from a point is a circle. In one dimension, a line segment is bound by the two points at a given distance from a point.
A chord and the diameter is the largest chord of a circle. A2. Remember, the circle is the bit inside the curved line, NOT the curved line. [A circle is bounded by ... .] From any two points on a circle, you could erect a variety of lines, of which the shortest for any given quest would be a straight line. The other natural line joining two points would be the arc joining two points on the perimeter of a circle. * * * * * Actually, I believe that a circle IS the curved line. A circle is defined as the locus of all points that are at a constant distance from a fixed point (the centre). This is the boundary of the circle, not its interior.
