Question

radius of the circle is 17 cm distance of the chord is 5 cm to find the length of the chord​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let AB be the chord with length =16cm

OA=radius=17cm

Now, OC⊥AB

Then, AC=CB=8cm  (perpendicular drawn from the centre of the circle to the chord,bisects the chord)

∴OC=(OA2−AC2)=(172−82)=(225)=15cm

Hence, OC=15cm



Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

OC=15 CM
