Question

Here is a circle with center H and some line segments and curves joining points on the circle.

Identify and select all of the segments that form a diameter of the circle.
A. AD
B. BG
C. EH
D. AC
E. BH

Answer 1

The examples are,

a. Diameter: DG

b. Radius: AH, EH, DH, GH

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter: straight line passing one side to another side through the center of a circle or sphere is known as diameter.

the line DG joins 2 points on the circle from one side to another passing through the center of the circle.

Therefore, the DG segment is an example of a diameter.

Radius: a line segment extending from the center of a circle or sphere to the circumference is known as a radius.

The lines HA, HE, HD, and HG, extend from the center of the circle to the points on the circumference of the circle.

Therefore, these segments are examples of radius present in the image.

The examples are,

a. Diameter: DG

b. Radius: AH, EH, DH, GH
