Answer:


\large{ \tt{❃ \: EXPLANATION}} :

  • Radius is the line segment that joins the centre of a circle and any point on its circumference. In the figure , AP is the radius. The plural form of radius of radii. All the radii of a circle are equal i.e AP , PB & PC are radii and they're equal.


\large{ \tt{❁ \: LET'S \: CHECK \: THE \: OPTIONS: }}


  • \large{ \tt{ \overline{AP}}} - Yes!
    \tt{ \overline{AP }} is a radius since it is the line segment which joins the centre of a circle and any point on the circumference.


  • \large{ \tt{ \overline{ AB}}} - No! It's a diameter since it is the line segment that passes through the centre of a circle and joins any two points on its circumference. Remember: The length of a diameter is two times radius i.e if the length of radius [ AP ] is 5 then the length of Diameter [ AB ] will be 5 × 2 = 10.


  • \large{ \tt{ \overline{ DE}}} - No! It's a chord since it is the line segment which joins any two points on the circumference of a circle.
