What is a chord in terms of mathematics?
a line that joins two points on a circle
What is a line which joins the two points of circumference and passes through the centre of circle is called?
That's the diameter.
What joins two points on a circle?
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.
A line segment that joins two nonconsecutive?
A diagonal from a polygon is a line segment that joins two nonconsecutive points.
What is the diameter of a circle?
A chord of a circle is a straight line that joins any two points on the circumference of a circle. The diameter of a circle is the length of the chord that passes through the centre of the circle; it is the chord of longest length and is twice the radius of the circle in length.
What is a straight line that joins two points on the circumference of a circle?
A chord is a line that joins to points on the circumference of a circle. If it passes through the center of the circle it's called a diameter.
A line segment that intersects with two points on a circle is called what?
A line segment that intersects with or joins two points on a circle is called a chord.
Straight line that joins two points on the circumference of a circle?
diameter

What is a straight line that joins two points on the circumfrance of a circle?
A chord i think? Sorry if its wrong, I'm not good at this stuff:(
A line segment that joins two nonconsecutive?
A diagonal from a polygon is a line segment that joins two nonconsecutive points.
Is the radius of a circle a chord also?
No. A chord is a straight line joining two points on the circumference of a circle whereas a radius joins only one point on the circumference to the circle centre. A diameter is a straight line joining two points on the circumference (via the circle's centre) and so is also a chord. (Yes, but the question is about a radius, not a diameter!)
What is the diameter of a circle?
A chord of a circle is a straight line that joins any two points on the circumference of a circle. The diameter of a circle is the length of the chord that passes through the centre of the circle; it is the chord of longest length and is twice the radius of the circle in length.
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.
What is a straight line joining points on a circle?
A straight line joining points on a circle is called a "chord" of that circle. If the line happens to pass through the center of the circle, then it's a "diameter" of that circle. The question asked about "points" on a circle, so two points on the circumference of that circle are being considered. (No line can join more than two points of a circle.)
