Answer:

Explanation:

Chord--

A chord is a line segment whose end point lie on the circumference of the circle.

It divides the circle into two segments.

  • If the chord passes through the center of a circle then the chord is the diameter of the circle and the two segments are of equal measure.
  • If it does not pass through the center of the circle then the two segments are of different measure.

The larger segment is known as a major segment.

and the smaller segment is known as a minor segment.
