1. Problem Description

We are given a circle with center NN. We need to identify a radius, a diameter, and a chord in the circle. We are also given that the length of NPNP is 8 units, and we need to find the length of KOKO.

2. Solution Steps

(a) A radius is a line segment from the center of the circle to a point on the circle. From the figure, a radius is NPNP or NKNK or NONO.
(b) A diameter is a line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has endpoints on the circle. From the figure, a diameter is KOKO.
(c) A chord is a line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle. From the figure, a chord is LMLM or KOKO.
(d) We are given that NP=8NP = 8 units. From the figure, NPNP is a radius of the circle. Also, KOKO is a diameter of the circle. The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. Therefore, KO=2NP=28=16KO = 2 \cdot NP = 2 \cdot 8 = 16 units.

3. Final Answer

(a) A radius: NPNP (or NKNK or NONO)
(b) A diameter: KOKO
(c) A chord: LMLM (or KOKO)
(d) The length of KOKO is 16 units.
