उत्तर
Yes, we need to understand terms like point, line, ray, angle, plane, circle, and quadrilateral before defining the required terms.
The distance from the centre to a point on the circle is called the radius of the circle. In the figure, p is the centre, Q is a point on the circle, and PQ is the radius.
