ΔABO is a right triangle with AB⊥BO. The radius of the circle is BO. The Pythagorean theorem applies.
AO² = AB² + BO²
13² = 5² + r²
169 -25 = r²
r = √144 = 12

The radius (r) is 12.

Answer: b^2+h^2=x^2

Step-by-step explanation: The line labeled x here is called the hypotenuse. There are a few ways to calculate the hypotenuse, but the most common way is by using this equation: b^2+h^2=x^2.

I hope this helped! ;) Good luck on your test or quiz or whatever you have to do in order to pass!

If the blue radius below is perpendicular to the green chord and the segment BC is 7.6 units long, what is the length of the cho
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 15.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment AB is congruent to the segment BC  eg AB≅BC Why?

We can prove it with the triangle congruent theorem, postulate side-side-angle

We are watching triangle ΔABO and triangle ΔCBO, they are congruent

first element side OB=OB - common side

second element side OA=OC=r - radius of the circle

third element angle ∡ABO≅∡CBO=90°

According to the postulate side-side-angle we can conclude that triangles

ΔABO≅ΔCBO (triangles are congruent)

If they are congruent all of their elements are also congruent and therefore also

side AB=BC  => AB+BC=AC,  which is chord  => 7.6+7.6=15.2 units

AC= 15.2 units ( chord )

Good luck!!!
