Answer:

B. AD

Explanation:

A secant is a
line which intersects a circle at exactly two different points and leaves a chord on joining those two points.

A chord is a line which which terminates on the two different points on the circle.

Radius is the line joining the center to any of the point on the circle.

Tangent is a line which crosses from the outer periphery of the circle touching at any of its one point.

Thus the secant in the given diagram is clearly none other than
AD.
