How many chords can be a diameter?
There are an infinite number of diameters to any circle...
Is this statement true or false All diameters pass through the center of a circle.?
All diameters pass through the centre of a circle, is true.
How many diameters are possible to draw for a circle?
An infinite number are possible, all in the same circle. If someone draws two diameters, then no matter how close together they are, you can come along and draw another one in between them. So there's no limit to the number.
True or false an inscribed angle is an angle formed by two chords which share an endpoint and passed through the center?
False. The statement was fine until it reached the last requirement. Chords both pass through the center of the circle are diameters. If two of them shared one end point, they would also share the other end point. They would be the same diameter, and the angle between them would be zero.
How every circle has unique diameter?
That means that a given circle doesn't have two or three diameters. For a given circle, there is a unique measurement, called its "diameter". It is the distance from one end to the other, passing through the center. Since the circle is defined as all the points that are at the same distance from a point (the center), all radii are the same distance; and the diameter is simply twice the radius.
Why can't all chords diameters?
The only chords that are diameters are the chords that go through the center of the circle. All of the other chords are shorter.
Why are all chords diameters?
This question does not make sense. All chords are not, in fact, diameters. Actually, only chords that pass through the center of a circle are diameters.
Are all diameters chords of a circle?
Yes
Do All diameters are chords?
The diameter of a circle is its largest chord
Are all chords diameters?
No, all chords are not diameters, though all diameters are chords.
Can all diameters are chords?
Yes, a diameter can be regarded as a special case of a chord. NB: NOT ALL CHORDS ARE DIAMETERS!
How many chords can be a diameter?
There are an infinite number of diameters to any circle...
When chords intersect in a circle are the vertical angles formed intercept congruent arcs?
Not unless the chords are both diameters.
Are diameters always congruent to chords?
No because the diameter of a circle is its largest chord.
Are chords diameters?
By definition, diameters are lines that reach all the way across the circle, crossing the middle point. The definition of a chord is a line segment that stretches across a circle intersecting at two points that does not cross the middle point. Chords are not diameters, for the property that makes a line segment a diameter is the intersection with the middle point. If the line segment is a diameter, then it automatically means that it is not a chord, for in essence, they are opposite.
How many diameters can be drawn for any circle?
There are infinite diameters in a circle all of the same lengths.
What is the difference between diameter and a chord?
A chord is any line segment going from one side of the circle to another. A diameter is a special chord - it is a chord that goes through the center of the circle. It is also the biggest chord possible in the circle. So all diameters are chords, but not all chords are diameters
