Question

identify the highlighted part of circle o or p shown below.answer attempt 1 out of 2inscribed anglediametercentertangent

Explanation:

• An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on the circle and whose sides contain chords of the circle. The highlighted part does not match this definition.
• The center is a point inside the circle, which is not what is highlighted.
• A diameter is a straight line passing from side to side through the center of a circle, which is not the case here.
• A tangent is a straight line that touches the circle at exactly one point. The highlighted line \(XI\) touches circle \(O\) at \(X\) and circle \(P\) at \(I\), so it is a common tangent.
