The diameter of the circle is 34cm and a chord is at a distance of 15cm from the centre. Find the length of the chord of the circle

===================================================

Explanation:

The drawing is shown below.

The goal is to find the length of CE based on these facts

Notice how AB = AC = AE = 17 because they are all radii of the same circle. We cut the diameter in half to get the radius.

Focus on triangle CAD. We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(AD)^2 + (DC)^2 = (AC)^2

15^2 + x^2 = 17^2

225 + x^2 = 289

x^2 = 289 - 225

x^2 = 64

x = sqrt(64)

x = 8

Segment CD is 8 cm long, and so is segment DE.

To wrap things up, we then say:

CE = CD + DE

CE = 8 + 8

CE = 16

Chord CE is 16 cm long.

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth
