Nick, I know from experience what the correct answer likely is, but simply giving you that answer will not help you much, if at all.  Instead, I'd suggest that you do an Internet search for "chord" and look carefully at the illustrations that show up.  If you're lucky, you may find an illustration that shows two intersecting chords within the circle.  If you're even luckier, you may find one that shows 2 chords that intersect within the circle and are also perpendicular to one another.  Try drawing  a picture; that may lead you to the correct answer.
