question 6 of 10

a ______ of a circle is a region bounded by an arc of a circle and radii to the endpoints of the arc.

a. radius
b. sector
c. circumference
d. diameter

Explanation:

Analyze the geometric definition

Using the Geometric Terminology knowledge point
The problem asks to identify the term for a region bounded by an arc of a circle and two radii to the endpoints of that arc.

Evaluate the given options

Using the Area of a Sector knowledge point

  • A radius is a line segment from the center to the perimeter.
  • A sector is a pie-shaped region enclosed by two radii and an arc.
  • Circumference is the distance around the circle.
  • A diameter is a straight line segment passing through the center.

Select the correct term

Using the Geometric Terminology knowledge point
The definition matches a sector of a circle.

Answer:

  • A. radius
  • B. sector (Correct answer)
  • C. circumference
  • D. diameter
