**Question 2**

**Task:**

Match each circle term with an example from the diagram.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The provided diagram is a circle with several labeled points and lines:

- Points on the circle: **A**, **B**, **C**, **D**, **E**, and **F**.
- Line segments:
  - **AB**: A chord of the circle.
  - **DE**: Another chord of the circle which passes through the circle.
  - **CF**: A line segment that acts as a tangent to the circle from point **C** to point **F**.

**Terms to Match:**

1. **Radius**: A segment from the center of the circle to any point on the circle. Since the center isn't explicitly marked here, it can't be identified directly.
   
2. **Diameter**: A chord passing through the center of the circle, essentially twice the radius. Points **D** and **E** form a diameter if one assumes point **C** is the center.

3. **Chord**: A segment with both endpoints on the circle. For instance, **AB** and **DE** are chords.

4. **Tangent**: A line that touches the circle at exactly one point. **CF** could represent a tangent if it only touches the circle at one point.

Use the above descriptions to complete the matching task with terms including possible radius, diameter, chord, and tangent based on the description given.

### Geometry Matching Exercise

Match each geometric term with the correct notation. This exercise will help reinforce your understanding of important geometric concepts.

#### Terms:
1. Secant (a)
2. Inscribed Angle (e)
3. Central Angle
4. Tangent
5. Chord
6. Radius

#### Notations:
- **a.** \(\overline{DF}\)
- **b.** \(\overline{CE}\)
- **c.** \(\overline{DE}\)
- **d.** \(\overline{AB}\)
- **e.** \(\angle EDF\)
- **f.** \(\angle BCE\)

#### Instructions:
Match each term on the left with the correct notation on the right by clicking and dragging or writing the letter of the notation next to the corresponding term. 

### Example:
If you believe "Secant" corresponds to "\(\overline{DF}\)", write or select "a".
