Question

question 9 of 10
which of the following segments is a diameter of ○ o?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of a diameter

A diameter of a circle is a straight line passing through the center of the circle and connecting two points on the circle.

Step2: Analyze each option

• Option A: $\overline{OF}$ is a radius (a line segment from the center \(O\) to a point \(F\) on the circle).
• Option B: $\overline{UF}$ passes through the center \(O\) and connects two points \(U\) and \(F\) on the circle.
• Option C: $\overline{WO}$ is a radius (a line segment from the center \(O\) to a point \(W\) on the circle).
• Option D: $\overline{WM}$ is a chord (a line segment connecting two points \(W\) and \(M\) on the circle but not passing through the center).

Answer:

B. \(\overline{UF}\)
