Why segments AB and AC have the same length?

• Segments AB and AC are equal because they are both diameters of the same circle.

• Segments AB and AC are equal because they are both chords of different circles.

• Segments AB and AC are equal because they are both tangents to the same circle.

• Segments AB and AC are equal because they are both radii of the same circle.
