Answer:
ANSWER
Given o is the center of circle ,OM=3 cm and AB=8 cm
Join O to A and B
In figure OM show that the perpendicular from center O on cord AB
WE know that Perpendicular from the Center of a Circle to a Chord Bisects the Chord.
Then AM=BM
So AM=BM=

AB
=

8
=4cm
ΔAOM

=16+9=25
⇒AO=5cm
Then AO is the radius of circle is 5 cm
