Question

In a circle, two chords are at a distance of 3.7 cm from the center. If the length of one chord is 5.3 cm, what is the length of the other chord? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

do yourself

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a chord increases as the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to the chord decreases and vice versa. The diameter is the longest chord of a circle, whereby the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to the chord is zero.

Answer 2

Answer:

The longest chord in a circle is its diameter.

Diameter of a circle=2×radius of the circle.

∴ Diameter of a circle=2×7.5=15cm
