To find the intersection points of the line and the circle we have to set up a system with their equations and solve. The system would look like this:
To solve, substitute 1 for x in the second equation to get:
Solving, we get:
Therefore, the two points of intersection are and
. The distance between these two points (the length of the chord in the circle) is
which is 7.745966692414... which is 7.7 rounded to the nearest tenth.
