Step-by-step explanation:

given circle with centre o

let 'ab' be the chord

r=17cm

distance=8cm

now by pgt

ao2=om2+am2

[17]sq=8sq+am2

289-64=am2

225=am2

am=√225

am=√15sq

am=15cm

now length of chord twice of am {as am is perpendicular to chord so it has divided it into two equal parts]

2*15=30cm
