Still have questions?

If a radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects that chord?

If radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects the chord only if radius is perpendicular to the chord.

If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord then?

Then the radius bisects the chord.

Why can a radius be a chord?

a radius can be a chord beca- wait why would i know!?!?!?

If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord at what point does it intersect the chord?

The radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a chord intersects the chord at its midpoint, so it is said to bisect the chord.

What is the relationship between the chord and the radius of circle?

The relationship between the chord and the radius of the circle is Length of the chord = 2r sin(c/2) where r = radius of the circle and c = angle subtended at the center by the chord

If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord then it that chord?

Bisects

If a radius of a circle bisects a chord then it is to that chord?

Perpendicular.

How do you find the radius given the chord length?

If you are given a chord length of a circle, unless you are given more information about the chord, you can not determine what the radius of the circle will be. This is because the chord length in a circle can vary from a length of (essentially) 0, up to a length of double the radius (the diameter). The best you can say about the radius if given the chord length, is that the length of the radius is at least as long has half half the chord length.

How do you calculate the coordinates of chord given the length of radius and chord?

You cannot. If you rotate the circle around its centre, the lengths of the radius and chord will remain the same but the coordinates of the chord will change.

A radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord if and only if?

Bisects that chord

Is a radius a chord of a circle?

No, but the diameter of a circle is its largest chord

If a radius of a circle intersects a chord it is perpendicular to that chord?

False
