Line segment that extends from the center of a circle to its edge?
This line is called a radius.
What is a line that passes through the center of a circle?
Any line that passes through a circle and touches two points on its circumference is a secant line. (Recall that a line is infinitely long.) If the line passes through the center of the circle, it is still called a secant line. Compare this to a line segment that has its endpoints on the circumference of the circle. That line segment is called the cord of the circle. If that cord passes through the center of the circle, it is a diameter of the circle, which is the longest cord of that circle.
What is the name of a line segment that connects the center and point on a circle?
The line segment is the radius of a circle that connects the center of a circle to any point on its circumference.
What is a line segment with its end points on the circumference of a circle?
A line segment with its endpoints on the circumference (curve) of a circle is called a chord of that circle. If it passes through the center of the circle (which it can, but does not have to do), it is called a diameter of the circle. See the links below for more information.Is called a radius.
Segment that has one endpiont at the center and the other endpoint on the circle?
A radius of a circle is a line segment joining the center of the circle to a point on the circle. All such segments have the same length, and this length also called the radius of the circle.
What is a line passing through the center of a circle with both end points on the circle called?
This is a line segment called a diameter of the circle.
Line segment that extends from the center of a circle to its edge?
This line is called a radius.
A line segment that connects the center of a circle to a point on the circle?
what about such a line segment? the length of such a segment is called the radius. the area of the circle is pi*the length of this segment squared the circumference is 2*pi*the length of this segment
What is a line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has its endpoints on the circle?
This is called "diameter"
What is a Line segment from the center of the circle to athe outside of the circle?
It's Called The Radius
What is a line segment from the center of a circle to any point on the boundary of circle?
its called a Radius
A line segment that passes through the center of a circle is called the?
Diameter
A line segment that connects through the center of a circle is called the?
Diameter.
Straight line from the center of a circle to the outside diameter is called?
A line segment with the center of a circle as one endpoint and the other endpoint on the circumference of the circle is a rdius of that circle.
What is the straight line through the center of a circle called?
A line that goes through a circle is a secant line. (Remember that a line is infinitely long.) Anyline that passes through a circle is a secant line, whether it passes through the center of the circle or not. Compare this to a line segment with endpoints on the circumference of a circle. That segment is called a cord of that circle. If the cord of a circle passes through the center of that circle, it is a diameter of that circle, which is the longest cord of the circle.
What is a line segment that does not pass through the center of the circle but whose endpoints are on the circle?
its called a chord
What do you call line segment in a circle?
A. If the 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. B. If the line segment touches one point on the circle AND the center of the circle AND is present only within the circle it is called as: radius.
