Use precise definitions of angle, circle, perpendicular line, parallel line, and line segment from point/line/distance ideas.

Classify a circle-related segment

Problem

Classify the circle object described by a segment from the center to a point on the circle.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

Circle-segment names come from where the endpoints sit, not from how the picture happens to look. We’ll track whether the segment starts at the center and whether its other endpoint lies on the circle, then compare that endpoint pattern with the defining patterns for chords and diameters.
