Question

PQ and RS are the chords of a circle each of which is at a distance of 5 cm from the centre.if the radius of the circle
is 10 cm then the length of the chords PQ and RS are___ and ___respectively​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure O is the centre of the circle and OM,ON are the perpendiculars from the centre to the chords PQ and RS respectively.

If OM=ON and PQ=6cm

We know that if two chords are equidistant from the centre then the two chords are equal in length.

Hence PQ=RS

∴RS=6cm
