Question

true or false? the blue radius is perpendicular to the green chord. a. true b. false

Explanation:

Step1: Recall circle - chord property

A radius that is perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord. Here, the lengths on either side of the intersection of the radius and the chord are equal (both 6.8), which implies the radius bisects the chord.

Step2: Apply the converse property

The converse of the property that a perpendicular radius bisects a chord is also true. That is, if a radius bisects a chord, then the radius is perpendicular to the chord.

Answer:

A. True
