If a diameter intersects a chord of a circle at a perpendicular, what conclusion can be made? the diameter and the chord are congruent.
the diameter is twice as long as the chord.
the chord is bisected.
the diameter is bisected.

The chord is bisected ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some facts in the circle to solve the problem

- A chord in a circle is the segments whose endpoints lie on the

 circumference of the circle

- A diameter of a circle is a chord passes through the center of the

 circle

- The diameter is the longest chord in the circle

- Any line passes through the center of the circle and perpendicular

 to a chord on the circle bisects it

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The diameter of the circle passes through the center of the circle

∵ The diameter intersects a chord of a circle at a perpendicular

∴ The diameter is perpendicular to the chord

∵ Any line passes through the center of the circle and perpendicular

  to a chord on the circle bisects it

∴ The diameter bisects the chord

* The chord is bisected

answer is 144
