Deified Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 and an infinite number would be the correct answer (if diameter is the correct term) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 A chord is a line segment connecting two ends of an arc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deified Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 A chord is a line segment connecting two ends of an arc. I haven't taken geometry ... ever, but it seems to me that a diameter would qualify as a chord. Actually any line intersecting a circle in two places. Is that included in the definition of a chord?

Dave Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Yes, a chord can be a diameter if the arc you've got has a length half the circumference of the circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
