1. Problem Description
We are given a circle with center . We need to identify a radius, a diameter, and a chord in the circle. We are also given that the length of is 8 units, and we need to find the length of .
2. Solution Steps
(a) A radius is a line segment from the center of the circle to a point on the circle. From the figure, a radius is or or .
(b) A diameter is a line segment that passes through the center of the circle and has endpoints on the circle. From the figure, a diameter is .
(c) A chord is a line segment whose endpoints both lie on the circle. From the figure, a chord is or .
(d) We are given that units. From the figure, is a radius of the circle. Also, is a diameter of the circle. The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. Therefore, units.
3. Final Answer
(a) A radius: (or or )
(b) A diameter:
(c) A chord: (or )
(d) The length of is 16 units.
