It is the diameter.
The circumstances of a circle are that it is a perfectly round shape and that its perimeter is better known as its circumference.
If a line segment touches two points on the circle it is called as: 1. secant; if the line extends outside the circle. 2. chord; if the line is present only within the circle. Diameter is a line which satisfies the second condition hence it is a chord. The additional condition for a chord to be known as diameter is that the chord should pass through the center of the circle!
Given an arc or segment with known width and height, the formula for the radius of a circle is:r = (H÷2) + (W2÷8H)Where: W is the length of the chord defining the base of the arc and H is the height measured at the midpoint of the arc's base
The length around a circle is the circumference The length across a circle is the diameter
