Step-by-step explanation:

Let the center of the circle be point O.

A right-angled triangle can be drawn using one side of chord X as the base and its height up to point O.

The height of the triangle will be 4 - 2 = 2, and the hypotenuse is the radius of the circle, which is 4.

By Pythagoras' Theorem, 2^2 + (X/2)^2 = 4^2.

So (X/2)^2 = 14, and X = 2√14.

Of the total 31 + 20 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 69 medals, the USA won 31 of them. 31/69 as a percentage is about 45%. Since there are 360° in a full circle, 45% of that is 0.45 * 360 = 162°.
