Answer» GIVEN A CIRCLE with center O Radius OA=10 cm CHORD AB=12 cm. To find the distance OM of the chord from O OM is PERPENDICULAR to chord AB As perpendicular from the center Na chord bisect the chord. So AM= AB/2 =6 cm In right angled triangle AMO AO² =AM² +OM² ⇒10² =6² +OM² ⇒100=36+OM² ⇒OM² =100−36 ⇒OM² =64 OM=8cm |
