Question

Given O below, if XY and YZ are congruent, what is the measure of chord XY

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 10.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer : The value of chord XY is, 10.2 units

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that, XY and YZ are congruent.

XY and YZ are congruent by SSA.

The ΔXOY and ΔZOY are congruent triangles.

Side OX = Side OZ           (side)

Side OY = Side OY     (common side)

∠XOY = ∠ZOY                   (angle)

That means, in this two sides and one angle of a triangle are equal to another triangle then the triangles are congruent.

So, Side XY = Side YZ

As we are given :

Chord YZ = 10.2

So, Chord YZ = Chord XY = 10.2

Hence, the value of chord XY is, 10.2 units
