If two chords of a circle are equidistant from the center of the circle then they are
A
Equal to each other
B
Not equal to each other
C
Intersect each other
D
None of these
Answer
Let AB,PQ be two chords, OC and OR be their distance from center.
Given
OC=OR
We know that BC=AC and PR=SR because perpendicular line from center bisects the chord.
In △OBC
BC2=r2–OC2–(1)
In △OPR
OP2=RP2+OR2
PR2=r2–OC2–(2)
(1)=(2)
⟹BC=PR⟹2BC=2PR
AB=PQ
