circle of radius 5cm?
a) 4 cm
b) 3 cm
c) 2 cm
d) 9 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

If you know the radius and the perpendicular distance from the center of the circle to the chord, the formula would be: This formula is essentially a variation of the Pythagorean theorem (a squared + b squared = c squared), with a and b being the sides of a right triangle and c being the hypotenuse
