Question

question 19 of 25
oc is perpendicular to ab. what is the length of ab?
a. 13.2 units
b. 2.2 units
c. 8.8 units
d. 4.4 units

Explanation:

Step1: Recall circle - chord property

A perpendicular from the center of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.

Step2: Identify segment lengths

Given \(AC = 4.4\) units. Since \(OC\perp AB\), \(AB=2\times AC\).

Step3: Calculate length of \(AB\)

\(AB = 2\times4.4=8.8\) units.

Answer:

C. 8.8 units
