Mathematics

Answer:

8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the 3 cm line from the chord to the center of a circle is a leg of a right triangle which perpendicularly bisects the chord into two equal halves

draw the hypotenuse of the right triangle from the center of the circle to the endpoint of the chord. This is a radius measuring 5 cm.

find the missing leg of the right triangle

a^2= c^2- b^2

a^2= 25-9

a^2=16

a=4

this is only the measurement of half the chord. To find the full length of the chord multiply by two

4*2=8 cm

Matt and Cat win £120 on the lottery and decide to share the winning ratio 1:2
8_murik_8 [283]
The way to work out how much each person gets is to find out how much one part is worth.

We can do this by adding the ratio (1:2) which gives us 3.

Divide £120 by 3 parts and you get £40 as one part. 

Because the ratio is one part : two parts, Matt gets £40 and Cat gets £80.

Triangle ABC is a right triangle. The sides measure AB = 3 and BC = 4. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find CA. A. CA = 25 B. CA
Vesna [10]

Answer:

  CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are 3 and 4, we recognize this as a 3:4:5 right triangle, with CA = 5. Using the Pythagorean theorem confirms this:

  CA² = AB² +BC²

  CA² = 3² +4² = 9 +16 = 25

  CA = √25

  CA = 5
