Question

Radius of a circle with centre O is 10 cm. Find the distance of the chord from the centre if the length of the circle is 12 cm.
Please write answers neatly​

Answer 1

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Chord = 12 cm

Half of the Length = 6 cm

Radius = 10 cm

Distance of the Chord is perpendicular to the chord.

So, distance of the Chord = root(10^2 - 6^2) = root64 = 8 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance of the chord from the centre of the circle is 8 cm.
