Question

Consider the following circle with center at point O.
Identify one radii, one diameter, and one chord of the circle. Justify your answers.

Answer 1

Answer:

Chord: RT (and RS and TU, but those are also diameters)

Diameter: RS or TU

Radii: OU, OS, OT, or OR

Step-by-step explanation:

Chord: A line segment joining two points on a curve. Doesn't have to cross the center. (AKA, they have to touch the outer edge of the circle.)

Diameter: Chord that crosses the center of the circle(All examples given above cross center O)

Radius: Line segment that goes from the center of a circle to an endpoint that lies on the circle.
