To find the distance from the center of a circle to a chord, you can use the following formula:
Distance = √(r^2 - (1/4) * c^2)
Where:
- "r" is the radius of the circle.
- "c" is the length of the chord.
In this case:
- The radius of the circle (r) is 5 cm.
- The length of the chord (c) is 8 cm.
Now, plug these values into the formula:
Distance = √(5^2 - (1/4) * 8^2) Distance = √(25 - (1/4) * 64) Distance = √(25 - 16) Distance = √9 Distance = 3 cm
So, the distance from the center of the circle to the chord is 3 cm. The correct answer is 3 cm.
