Answer 1

Answer:

In geometry, a secant of a curve is a line that intersects the curve at a minimum of two distinct points.

The word secant comes from the Latin word secare, meaning to cut. In the case of a circle, a secant will intersect the circle at exactly two points.

Answer 2

Answer:

The line segment which intersects a circle at any two points of its circumference(border) is called Chord.

The biggest chord is Diameter.

However if you are talking about an infinite line then your answer is Secant.
