Who wants to be a millionaire?

[TheOriginalTonkaToy]

The answer is either chord or diameter.

 

[ebee]

The answer is chord, that is the NAME of the line

 

[TheOriginalTonkaToy]

Either chord or diameter is the name of that particular line.

 

[ebee]

No chord is the name and diameter is its length (of that one particular chord)

 

[TheOriginalTonkaToy]

Nope. The diameter isn't its length it's the name of the special chord that passes through the centre of the circle and bisects its area.

Both answers are correct.

 

[kidgreen61]

A chord and diameter are two different things (although if a chord exactly bisects a circle, then they are of the same length)

A chord can be of any length (as long as it bisects a circle), but a diameter always bisects a circle equally.

I'm with WDIK on this one

the last time England won a world cup at football was the club world cup,
If I remember right Rio Ferdinand was captain.

 

[ebee]

OK I was wrong.

I looked it up.

Yes it is a chord but that cord is named a diameter.

By modern convention its length is the diameter.

The differences being preceded by "a" or "the" so diameter is a correct answer to the "name" as reffered to in the question (so is chord).

Thank you to all participants
