Question

use the circle below to answer the questions. the length of line segment ef is centimeters.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall circle - radius property

In a circle, if \(O\) is the center and \(OE\) and \(OF\) are radii. Given the radius of the circle \(r = 12\) cm.

Step2: Calculate the length of \(EF\)

Since \(EF\) is a diameter of the circle and the diameter \(d\) of a circle is related to the radius \(r\) by \(d = 2r\). Here, \(d=EF\) and \(r = 12\) cm, so \(EF=2\times12\) cm.
