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.
How do you calculate the coordinates of chord given the length of radius and chord?
You cannot. If you rotate the circle around its centre, the lengths of the radius and chord will remain the same but the coordinates of the chord will change.
Can a chord be different legths on a given circle?
Yes but no bigger than its diameter
How do you find radius of a circle if cord length is given?
The longest chord in a circle is its diameter and halve of this is its radius.
What name is given to a line segment with endpoints on the circle?
The name is "chord".If the line segment happens to go through the center of the circle, thenit is also given the additional name "diameter", and no other chord in thesame circle can be longer than that one is.
