Question

radius=4cm length of chord =6cm then find the distance of chord from centre
​

Answer 1

$\huge\fcolorbox{cyan}{violet}{\color{blue}{✪ANSWER✪}}$

distance between center and the chord = height of traingle formed = 4cm

hypotenuse = radius = 6

so other side (base) of the right triangle formed

= √(36 - 16)

= √20

= √(4*5)

= 2√5 cm

now the perpendicular from centre to the chord divides the chord in two equal parts so

Length of chord = 2(other side of triangle)

= 2(2√5)

= 4√5 cm

Hence the length of chord is 4√5 cm

Hope it helped.
