    cm from the centre. The length of the chord is:
    A 10 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 16 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 28 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 37 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Perpendicular from centre to chord bisects the chord. Let half of the chord = x Then, x^2 + 6^2 = 10^2 x^2 + 36 = 100 x^2 = 64 x = 8 Chord length = 2x = 16 cm
