10\sqrt{2} or 14.14cm is the length of the cord

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the circle's radius be 'r' and the angle that is subtended at the center by the chord be ∅,

We are given that:

r = 10cm

∅ = 90°

Length of the chord = 2r sin ∅/2

= 2 * 10sin (90°/2)

= 20 * sin 45°

= 20 * 1/\sqrt{2}

= 10\sqrt{2}

In cm, it would be 14.14 cm
