Chord (geometry) A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle. A secant line, or just secant, is the infinite line extension of a chord. More generally, a chord is a line segment joining two points on any curve, for instance an ellipse. A chord that passes through a circle's center point is the circle's diameter. Every diameter is a chord, but not every chord is a diameter. The word chord is from the Latin chorda meaning bowstring.
The only information that all chord symbols have in common is that they start with the root note of the chord and for that they use the name of that root note. The root note of a chord is the note on which a chord is built. For example, a three-note triad using C as a root would consist of the notes C-E-G.
