Answer:

AC=8inches

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle AOC intersects a circle with center O, side AO is 10 inches and the diameter of the circle is 12 inches, thus

OC is the radius of the circle and is equal to \frac{D}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6 inches.

Now, From ΔAOC, using the Pythagoras theorem, we get

(OA)^{2}=(OC)^{2}+(AC)^{2}

⇒(10)^{2}=(6)^2+(AC)^2

⇒100=36+(AC)^2

⇒64=(AC)^2

⇒AC=8inches
