The statement, "The distance across the middle of the circle", best describes the diameter of a circle from the given options. Thus, option A is the right choice.

What is a circle?

A circle is a collection of all points at a fixed length from a fixed point.

The fixed length is called the radius.

The fixed point is the center.

The path traced by the points of the circle is the circumference.

The line joining any two points on the circumference passing through the center is the diameter.

How do we solve the given question?

We are asked to select the statement from the given options that best describe a diameter.

We check all given statements:

  • A. The distance across the middle of the circle: This seems like a diameter as it is passing through the middle point (center) of the circle and it is extended on both sides.
  • B. The distance from the center to any point on the circle: This seems like the radius of the circle, from the center to any point on the circle.
  • C. The distance from the center to any point on a chord of the circle: This is neither a radius nor a diameter, as it starts from the center and ends inside the circle.
  • D. The distance around the circle: This is the circumference.

∴ The statement, "The distance across the middle of the circle", best describes the diameter of a circle from the given options. Thus, option A is the right choice.
