उत्तर

Length of a chord of a circle is 24 cm. If distance of the chord from the centre is 5 cm, then the radius of that circle is 13 cm.

Explanation:

Let the chord be AB = 24 cm

Distance of the chord from the centre O is 5 cm.

AO is the radius of the circle.

Perpendicular from the centre of the circle to the chord bisects the chord. 

So, AC = CB

In ΔAOC, 

OC2 + AC2 = AO2

⇒ 52 + 122 = AO2

⇒ AO2 = 25 + 144

⇒ AO2 = 169

⇒ AO = 13 cm

Thus, the radius of the circle is 13 cm.
