The correct answer is 8
Because
In triangle ORB
OR=(OB^2-RB^2)^1/2
OR=(17^2-15^2)^1/2
OR=(289-225)^1/2
OR=(64)^1/2
OR=8
RB=AB/2 so I kept its value 15 and ^1/2 refers to square root

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: OB= 17 and AB = 30

If a line is perpendicular to a chord of a circle and passes through the centre of the circle, then it bisects that chord.

Using this definition we can say that point R is the midpoint of AB.

RB=\dfrac{AB}{2}

RB=\dfrac{30}{2}

RB=15

According to the Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle

hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle ORB,

OB^2=RB^2+OR^2

(17)^2=(15)^2+OR^2

289=225+OR^2

289-225=OR^2

64=OR^2

Taking square root on both sides.

\sqrt{64}=OR

8=OR

The val;ue of OR is 8 units.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
