Question

Help!!!!!!!!!!!! Need answer fast!!!!!!!!!!!
In the figure shown, L is the center of the circle and PQ is a chord of the circle measuring 20 cm.

What is the length, in cm, of PL? Round to the nearest hundredth digit.


Show me:

(a) length of segment PM (1 point)

(b) what circle property did you use to find the length of PM (1 point)

(c) what formula/theorem did you use to calculate the length of segment PL (1 point)

(d) all math used to calculate the length of segment PL (1 point)

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth digit.

Answer 1

The value of PM is the circle is about 11.66 cm

What is Pythagoras theorem?

Pythagoras theorem is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle.

From the diagram:

PM = PQ/2 = 20 / 2 = 10 cm

Hence, using Pythagoras:

PL² = LM² + MP²

PL² = 6² + 10²

PL = 11.66 cm

The value of PM is the circle is about 11.66 cm
