Answer 2

Given:

Circle with center P.

To find:

Which statement is true.

Solution:

In the circle P,

• PT is a radius of the circle P.
• VU is a diameter of the circle P.
• SR is a secant of the circle P.
• NQ is a tangent line and Q is a point of tangeny of circle P.

Option A:

N is a point of tangency on circle P.

It is is not true because Q is a point of tangency of circle P.

Option B:

PT is a secant of circle P.

It is not true because PT is a radius of the circle P.

Option C:

SR is a secant of circle P.

It is true by the above bulleted points.

Option D:

VU is a tangent of circle P.​

It is not true because VU is a diameter of the circle P.

Therefore SR is a secant of circle P is a true statement.
