A chord is at a distance of 8 cm from the centre of a circle of radius 17 cm. The length of the chord is

25 cm 12.5 cm 30 cm 9 cm

AB and CD are two equal chords of a circle with centre O such that ∠AOB = 80°, then ∠COD =

100° 80° 120° 40°

An equilateral triangle of side 9 cm is inscribed a circle. The radius of the circle is

3 cm 3√2 cm 3√3 cm 6 cm

Sides AB and AD of a quadrilateral ABCD are produced to E and F respectively. If ∠CBE = 100°, then find ∠CDF.

100° 80° 130° 90°

D is diameter of a circle and AB is a chord. If AD = 50 cm, AB = 48 cm, then the distance of AB from the centre of the circle is

6 cm 8 cm 5 cm 7 cm

In a circle with center O and a chord BC, points D and E lie on the same side of BC. Then, if∠BDC=80°, then ∠BEC =
