1. The problem is to understand how to draw a chord in a circle. 2. A chord is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle. 3. To draw a chord, first draw a circle with a center point $O$ and radius $r$. 4. Choose any two distinct points $A$ and $B$ on the circumference of the circle. 5. Draw a straight line segment connecting points $A$ and $B$. 6. This line segment $\overline{AB}$ is the chord of the circle. 7. Note that the chord does not have to pass through the center; if it does, it is called a diameter. Final answer: A chord is drawn by connecting any two points on the circle's circumference with a straight line segment.
