If BG = 90 and AF = 35, find the length of DE.

Someone PLEASE help..

Is A the center

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If A is the center, then AE equals 45 since it is the radius, or half of DE. Use a^2 + b^2 = c^2. with a = AF b=DE and c=AE so 45^2 - 35^2 = 800 so DE is the square root of 800

Here is a quick sketch and two follow up questions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Diameter is 90 so radius is 45, thus AF=45-35=10 Now draw Radius AD So \[DF=\sqrt{AD ^{2}-AF ^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now DE=2DF
