Question

The end point of the chord of a circle lies

on?

i) the circle

ii) exterior of a circle

iii) interior of a circle

iv) None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose end points both lie on a circular arc

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a) the circle.

• Chord is a line segment that joins any two points lying on the circumference of the circle. A chord is a line segment whose endpoints lie on the circle.
• The diameter is the longest chord of the circle which passes from the center of the circle and its endpoints touch the boundary of the circle.
• The formula for calculating the length of the chord is when radius and perpendicular distance from the chord are given is, Chord Length = 2 × √ (r2 − d2).
