Answer:
4.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment marked x bisects the chord, so the triangle shown has legs x and 7.8, and hypotenuse 8.8.
The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find x:
8.8² = x² +7.8²
x² = 8.8² -7.8² = 77.44 -60.84 = 16.60
x = √16.6
x ≈ 4.1 . . . cm
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
x = √(12.7^2 - 6.2^2)
x = √(161.29 - 38.44)
x = √122.85
x = 11.08
Round to 11.1 m
