perpendicular from the center will bisect the chord so, |dw:1388689364528:dw| can you find 'x' using pythagoras theorem now ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8^2 + 11^2 = x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

13.6 i believe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 20.5

hartnn (hartnn):

how 20.5 ? x^2= 64+121 = 185 so, x = sqrt 185 = 13.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

root(64 + 121) root(185) 13.6
