Answer:

The required length of the chord is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given to find the length of chord which is at distance of 5 cm from center of circle of radius 13 cm.

As shown in the attached figure below,  AB is a chord of a circle with center O, where

radius, OB = 13 cm and distance of AB from O, OD = 5 cm.

Since OD is the distance of AB from the center O, so it must be perpendicular to the chord AB.

So, triangle OBD is a right-angled triangle with OB as the hypotenuse.

Also, perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle to any chord bisects the chord.

That is, AD = DB.

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle OBD, we have

Therefore, we get

AB=AD+BD=2BD=2\times12=24.

Thus, the required length of the chord is 24 cm.
