In the adjoining figure, point O is the centre of the cirlcle, seg OM ⊥ chord AB. If OM = 8cm, AB = 12 cm, then find OB.
उत्तर
MB = 12 × AB = 12 × 12 = 6 cm (perpendicular drawn from the centre of the circle to the chord bisects the chord)
`OB^ = OM^2 + MB^2` .....................(Pythagoras thearem)
= `8^2 + 6^2`
= 64 + 36 = 100
∴ OB = 10 cm
