ANSWER

The segment that is a radius is


\bar{RO}

Step-by-step explanation

A radius is any line segment from the center of a circle to the circumference.

From the above diagram, the center of the circle is O.

The points on the circumference are A, R S and T.

The only line from the circumference to the centre in the options above is the line segment RO.

The correct answer is B.

Note however that


\bar{AS}
is a diameter, which is a special chord.


\bar{RA}

is a chord.

is also a chord.
