प्रश्न

Assertion (A): In the given figure, chord AB = 8 cm, diameter CD = 20 cm, then length of OP = 10 cm.

Reason (R): OP = `sqrt(OA^2 - AP^2)` and CP = OC + OP.

  • A is false, R is true.

  • Both A and R are true and R is the correct reason for A.

उत्तर

A is false, R is true.

Explanation:

The assertion is false because the radius is $10\text{ cm}$ and $\text{AP}$ is $4\text{ cm}$, meaning the actual length is:

OP = `sqrt(10^2 - 4^2)`

∴ OP = `sqrt84` cm

The reason is a true statement as it correctly applies the Pythagorean theorem to the right-angled triangle and accurately identifies the line segment addition from the diagram.
