I don’t see the diagram, so I can’t match them for sure. I can, however, tell you how to identify each type and give the most likely matching — or you can upload/describe the figure and I’ll match precisely.

Definitions (how to check):
- Radius: a segment from the center of the circle to any point on the circle.
- Diameter: a segment whose endpoints are on the circle and that passes through the center (a diameter = two radii end-to-end).
- Chord: any segment with both endpoints on the circle. (A diameter is a special chord.)

How to decide for a labeled segment:
- If one endpoint is the center, that segment is a radius.
- If both endpoints lie on the circle and the segment goes through the center, it’s a diameter.
- If both endpoints lie on the circle and the segment does not go through the center, it’s a chord.

Most likely match (common labeling practice):
- EB = radius (if E is the center and B is on the circle)
- AD = diameter (if A and D are opposite points on the circle, so AD passes through the center)
- BC = chord (if B and C are two distinct points on the circle not opposite each other)

If you can upload the picture or tell me which point is the center and which points lie on the circumference, I’ll give the exact matches.
