To find the length of the chord that subtends an angle of \(120^\circ\) at the center of a circle with a radius of 6 cm, we can use the following steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Geometry First, we need to visualize the situation. We have a circle with a center \(O\) and a radius \(R = 6\) cm. The chord \(AB\) subtends an angle of \(120^\circ\) at the center \(O\). ### Step 2: Use the Chord Length Formula The length of a chord \(L\) that subtends an angle \(\theta\) at the center of a circle of radius \(R\) can be calculated using the formula: \[ ...
