What defines a chord in geometry?
A chord is a straight line that extends from one point of the circumference of a circle to another point on the circumference and the diameter of a circle is its largest chord
What is a line segment that has both endpoints on the circumference?
It is a chord of a circle.
Is the circumference bigger than the chord?
Yes, the circumference of a circle is always larger than any chord that connects two points on the circle, except for the diameter, which is the longest chord. The circumference represents the total distance around the circle, while a chord only spans the distance between two points within that circle. Thus, for any chord that is not a diameter, the circumference will be greater.
Can a chord become a tangent?
No because a chord is a small part of the circumference and a tangent is a line outside of the circle that touches the circumference at a single point.
Is a Chord in geometry?
A chord is a straight line joining two points on the circumference of a circle.
What is arc and chord?
An arc is part of the circumference of a circle and a chord is a straight line that meets two points of the circumference with the diameter being the largest chord.

No because a chord is a small part of the circumference and a tangent is a line outside of the circle that touches the circumference at a single point.
What is the chord of a circle that is always smaller?
There is no chord that is always smaller since, in the limit, the chord reaches a single point on the circumference - when it it is no longer a chord!
Is a Chord in geometry?
A chord is a straight line joining two points on the circumference of a circle.
The line segment which touches two points on the circumference is what?
It is a chord of which the circle's diameter is the largest chord.
Where would uu find a chord on a circle?
A chord - is a straight-line joining two points on the circumference. The longest chord is the diameter.
Why can't a radius be a chord?
Because a chord is a line between two points on the circumference; a radius starts at the circumference and ends at the centre, so it doesn't fit the criteria.
Is it true that every chord of a circle contains two points of the circle?
well its true that every chord contains two points of the circumference of a circle 'cos a chord is the straight line between two points on the circumference
A radius is a chord of a circle?
No. A chord is a straight line within a circle that meets the circumference at two points and divides the circle into two arcs. A radius is a straight line from the centre of the circle to the circumference and is therefore not a chord. However, a diameter is a chord passing through the centre of the circle.
