Answer:
The secant in the following figure is line:
EF
Step-by-step explanation:
Secant--
A secant is a line that cut the curve at atleast(minimum) two(distinct) points.
Clearly from the figure we could see that:
- DE cut the circle at one point and hence is not a secant.It is a tangent.
- Also, AC cut the curve at two point but is not a secant since it is a line segment and not a line( that extends infinitely in both the directions).
AC is a diameter of the circle.
- Also, GH is a line segment that touches the curve at two points and hence is called a chord.
Hence, the answer is:
Line EF.
(Since it cut the curve and two point and also extend infinitely in both the directions )
