Answer:
If a line segment is a diameter, then it is the longest chord in a circle.
Line segment AB is a diameter which is the longest chord.
Step-by-step explanation:
A line segment joining any two points on a circle is called a chord of that circle. A chord that passes through the center of the circle is called a diameter of that circle. The length of the diameter is equal to 2* radius. We may draw unlimited number of chords in a circle but it can be verified by measurement that the one passing through the center is the longest. Hence it maybe concluded that the diameter of the circle is the greatest chord.
