Answer:
It can be concluded that the intersection of a chord and the radius that bisects it is at right angle. The two are perpendicular.
Step-by-step explanation:
i. Construct the required circle of any radius as given in the question, then locate the chord. A chord joins two points on the circumference of a circle, but not passing through its center.
ii. Construct the radius to bisect the chord, dividing it into two equal parts.
Then it would be observed that the intersection of a chord and the radius that bisects it is at right angle. Thus, the chord and radius are are perpendicular to each other.
The construction to the question is herewith attached to this answer for more clarifications.
Since the divisor is 2 digits, start by looking at the first 2 digits of the dividend. Those are 44, so you're dividing 44 by 15 at the first step. The quotient digit is the largest integer that gives a value less than or equal to the dividend (44) when multiplied by the divisor (15). For the first step, that digit is 2.
To find the new divisor, subtract the product of the divisor and the quotient digit (2·15=30) and bring down the next digit of the original dividend. Now, you have a dividend of 147 and a divisor of 15. Repeat the process as above.
The decimal point location in the answer can be found a number of ways. The simpliest is to put it above the decimal point in the dividend. (When the divisor is not an integer, multiply or divide both divisor and dividend by the same power of 10 until it is.)
