Now that i think about it. I feel really dumb, How could i not know that, that was a radius ? Smh .. Im slacking.

iits a 3d object and 'radius' is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Imagine the sphere the 2d object like chandhooguy said, the definition of a radius is: A straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle(or sphere), in this case a sphere. So AB is the radius of the sphere.
