From the diagram this is XY → B

The correct option is option B: The line segment XY is a secant.

What is secant?

Line segment which intersects the circle at two points is called secant.

We are given circle with center at O.

From the options,

1.  Line UZ :

   UZ intersects the circle at one point. So it can't be secant.

2. Line XY:

    XY intersects the circle at TWO points. So it is a secant.

3. Line XO :

   XO intersects the circle at one point. So it can't be secant.

Therefore the line segment XY is a secant.
