Answer:
The chord is bisected.
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
In the circle of the figure
The diameter is the segment DE
The chord is the segment AB
PA=PB=r ----> radius of the circle
Triangles PAC and PBC are congruent right triangles by SSS
Because
PA=PB
PC is a common side
AC=BC ----> Applying Pythagoras Theorem
therefore
The chord AB is bisected
