Can a circle pass through three points of a straight line?
No, a circle can never pass through three points of a straight line. The circle will touch 1) no points of the line, 2) one point of the line (which is now tangent to the circle), or 3) two points of the line. A line can contain (at most) twopoints that lie on the line.
A tangent line is a line that intersects a circle at exactly two points?
No. A tangent touches the circle at exactly one point. A line that intersects a circle at exactly two points is a secant.
A line joining two points on the circle?
A secant line.
What is a straight line that intersects a curve?
A straight line that intersects a circle or curve at two points, but which has both end points outside the circle or curve is called a secant. A straight line that links two points on a circle or curve is called a chord. A straight line which touches a circle or curve at one point is called a tangent. A straight line that cuts a circle or curve at one point is a straight line.* For moving diagrams see Related links below this box.
What is a line joining two points on the circle?
A line joining two points on a circle is called a chord. A chord is a straight line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle. The longest chord in a circle is called the diameter, which passes through the center of the circle. Chords play a significant role in geometry and trigonometry when studying circles and their properties.
Can a circle pass through three points of a straight line?
No, a circle can never pass through three points of a straight line. The circle will touch 1) no points of the line, 2) one point of the line (which is now tangent to the circle), or 3) two points of the line. A line can contain (at most) twopoints that lie on the line.
Was a secant line can intersect a circle in three points?
No it cannot.
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.)
How many points does the circle x2 plus y2 equals 36 and the line y equals x-10 have in common?
X2 + Y2 = 36Y = (+/-) sqrt(36 - X2)=====================Radius = 6 (the circle is nicely oriented )andY = X - 10zeroing out variables in turnY = (0) - 10Y = - 10=======================With a radius of only six for the circle and the line with these intersection points we can say with some confidence that this circle has no points in common with this line.
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.
A tangent line is a line that intersects a circle at exactly two points?
No. A tangent touches the circle at exactly one point. A line that intersects a circle at exactly two points is a secant.
What is the answer if circle is a line that intersects a circle at 2 points?

A line segment that connects any two points of a circle is called?
A chord is a line which connects two points which lie on a circle.
How many points does a tangent line have in common with its circle?
one and only one point no matter how far produced.
Can two points be noncoplanar?
Any three given points can be joined by a common plane, and any two given points can be joined by a common line and an infinite number of common planes.
What do you call the line that intersects the circle at two points?
A straight line that intersects a circle's circumference at two points will create a chord of which the circle's diameter is its largest chord.
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.
