A Circle has 24 cm. chord and 26 cm. diameter. What is the length of chord from
centre of that circle ?
Answers
d=26c.m.
r=13c.m. if we draw a hieght to the cord from the center than the cord divided into two parts which are equal
let AB is the chord
and the height touches the chord at point X
than AX = BX
AX=24/2=12cm
OA is the radius which is equal to 13cm
in triangle OAX,measure of OXA =90°
and OA is the hypotenus(h)
AX and OX are touching the right angle v so the are p and b
as to Pythagorean theorem,=+
=+
13^2=12^2+
169= 144+
169-144=
25=
OX = 5 cm
