JK and LM are perpendicular diameters of a circle. They are each 12 inches long. What is the approximate length of chord LK? With Explanation Please

Sagot :

Answer:

8.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the center of the circle = C

Now CK = CL = 6

Using Pythagoras theorem  

LK^2 = CL^2 + CK^2

        = 6^2 +6^2

          = 36 + 36

          = 72

LK = 72 ^1/2

     = ( 36*2)^1/2

       = 6(2)^1/2

      = 8.5 inches
