The chord that goes through the center of a circle, the diameter, is the longest chord in a circle. Any other chord will be shorter than this. The farther a chord is away from the circle, the shorter it will be. This means that chord CD is shorter than chord AB.

Describe the pattern below 3 6.5 11 16.5 23

ipn [44]

6.5 - 3 = 3.5
11 - 6.5 = 4.5
16.5 - 11 = 5.5
23 - 16.5 = 6.5

From this, you can see that the number being added is increasing by 1 each time.

Therefore, the pattern is adding 3.5, then 4.5, then 5.5, then 6.5, and so on.
