Introduction to Circles

Question 18 • (Volch)WCA 3230 Geometry 4th Nine Weeks 25-26

Can a chord also be classified as a radius? Explain your answer.

Answer

Answer:

No. A chord has both endpoints on the circle, while a radius has one endpoint at the center and the other on the circle. So a segment cannot be both a chord and a radius.
