In the given figure, O is the centre of ...

In the given figure, `O` is the centre of a circle and diameter `AB` bisects the chord `CD` at a point `E` such that `CE` = `CD` = `8 cm` and `EB` `=` `4 cm`. The radius of the circle is

A

`10 cm`

B

`12 cm`

C

`6 cm`

D

`8 cm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Let the radius of the circle be r cm.
Then, `OD = OB = rcm , OE = (r-4) cm, ED= 8 cm`.
Now, `OD^(2) = OE^(2) + ED^(2) impliesr^(2) = (r-4) +8^(2)`
`:. 8r= 80 implies r= 10cm`
