Solution
The correct option is
D
Radius
All the points on the circle are at equal distances from the centre of the circle, and this equal distance is called as radius of the circle.
Hence,
a line segment joining the centre and any point on the circle is called radius.
Since, the path along the circle is called the circumference, we can say that,
the radius of a circle is the distance from the centre of the circle to its circumference.
Therefore, option
D
is correct.
