Question

Which of the following is a secant on the circle below?

Answer 1

A.
`\vec{KI}` is the secant line on the below circle.

Explanation:

The intersection of the circle will result in either Tangent or Secant. Secant is a line intersecting a circle at two different point. This concept explains the relation between the circle and line intersecting it.

From the given diagram,

The
`\vec{GJ}` and
`\vec{GK}` intersects the circle at the point H and I.

∴ It can also represented that the
`\vec{JH}` and
`\vec{KI}` intersects at a point G.

From the given options
`\vec{KI}` is the secant line that intersects the circle twice.
