a chord is drawn 3 cm away from the centre of a circle of radius 5 cm. calculate the length of the chord​

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

PLEASE HELP!! URGENT

1. The problem statement tells you to find "the area of the hexagonal face".

2. If we assume the intent is to find the shaded area of the face only, it differs from the area of a regular hexagon in that there is a hole in the middle.

3. You must find the area of the regular hexagon, and subtract the area of the circular hole in the middle.

4. The formula for the area of a circle in terms of its radius is

... A = πr²

5. The formula for the area of a regular hexagon in terms of the radius of the circumcircle is

... A = (3√3)/2·r²

6. The radius of the circumcircle of the regular hexagon is given. No additional information is needed.

7. You can use the trig functions of the angles of an equilateral triangle to find the apothem, but there is no need for that when you use the formula of 5.

8. All this is unnecessary. The apothem is (8 mm)·(√3)/2 = 4√3 mm ≈ 6.9282 mm, the shorter leg is (8 mm)·(1/2) = 4 mm. The perimeter is 6·8 mm = 48 mm.

9. The area of the hexagon is

... A = 3√3/2·(8 mm)² = 96√3 mm² ≈ 166.277 mm²

10. The area of the circle is

... A = π·(4 mm)² = 16π mm² ≈ 50.265 mm²

11. The area of the hexagonal face is approximately ...

... 166.277 mm² - 50.265 mm² = 116.01 mm²

Question 27 <br> Find the length of the hypotenuse. Leave answer in simplest radical form.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Use SOHCAHTOA.  Since we are looking for the hypotenuse, you must use sine or cosine.  Since, we are given the adjacent side, use cosine.

cosx=a/h

cos45=8/h

√2/2=8/h

<em>*Cross multiply*</em>

h√2=16

<em>*Divide both sides by √2*</em>

h=16/√2

<em>*Multiply by √2/√2*</em>

h=(16√2)/2

<em>*Simplify the fraction*</em>

h=8√2

Hope this helps!!
