Brenda thinks that a chord can be many different lengths on a given circle. Is he right?
Yes but a chord cannot be bigger than the circle's diameter which is its largest chord.
When is a Chord a diameter?
The longest chord of a circle is its diameter
Is a radius a chord of a circle?
No, but the diameter of a circle is its largest chord
Is The diameter of a circle is a chord that does not always pass through the center of the circle.?
The diameter of a circle is a circle's largest chord.
Can a chord be in the middle of a circle?
Not sure what you mean by "in the middle of a circle". A chord must have each of its ends on the circumference of the circle. If a chord is such that is passes through the centre point of the circle, it is (the longest chord possible and is) called a diameter. Or to put it another way, a diameter of a circle is a chord which passes through the centre point of the circle.
Can a chord of a circle also be the diameter of the circle?
Sure. Any chord that passes through the center of the circle is also a diameter. Chords can have many different lengths, but a diameter is the longest chord.

What is a chord of a circle that contains the center of a circle?

What is the longest chord of a circle know as?
The largest chord of a circle is its diameter
What is a chord that passes through the cent of a circle?
A chord is any line segment that connect two points of a circle. If a chord passes through the center of the circle it is called the DIAMETER of the circle. The diameter of any circle is the longest chord of that circle as well.
A line that intersects a circle in two points?
A chord line intersects a circle at two points of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
