The image you provided contains a circle where \( U \) is the center, and it states that the length of segment \( WV \) is 17 inches. Here’s how to approach the questions:

### 2. What is the length of a diameter of this circle?
The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. Since \( WV \) is given as 17 inches, and \( WV \) appears to be a radius (a line segment from the center \( U \) to the circumference), the diameter will be:
\[
\text{Diameter} = 2 \times \text{Radius} = 2 \times 17 = 34 \text{ inches}.
\]
So, the length of the diameter is **34 inches**.

### 3. Select each segment that is a radius of the circle.
A radius is any line segment from the center \( U \) to a point on the circumference. Based on the diagram, the following segments are radii:
- \( YU \)
- \( VU \)
- \( SU \)
- \( TU \)
- \( XU \)

If you have any other specific questions, feel free to ask!

### Additional Questions:
1. What is the formula for calculating the area of the circle using the radius?
2. How would you find the circumference of this circle?
3. How many radii does a circle have?
4. If the radius was instead 20 inches, what would the new diameter be?
5. Can you explain the relationship between radius and diameter geometrically?

**Tip:** Always remember that the diameter is twice the radius, which is helpful in many geometry problems involving circles.

What is the length of a diameter of this circle? Select each segment that is a radius of the circle.
