Answer
Brief Explanations:
A major arc is an arc of a circle that measures more than 180 degrees (half the circle). $\overparen{CDE}$ connects points C, D, E, covering the longer portion of the circle rather than the shorter arc CE. A minor arc is shorter than 180 degrees, a semicircle is exactly 180 degrees, and a chord is a straight line between two circle points, not an arc.
Answer:
a major arc
