The radius of a sphere is 6 inches. find the length of a chord connecting two perpendicular radii. x = inches

6√2 ≈ 8.485 inches

The radii and the chord together make an isosceles right triangle with legs 6 inches long. The hypotenuse of such a triangle is √2 times the leg length. So, the chord will be 6√2 in long.

Comment on isosceles right triangle

It is worth remembering that the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is √2 times the leg length. This is easily found using the Pythagorean theorem:

... c² = a² + b²

... c² = 1² + 1² = 2 . . . . for legs of length 1

... c = √2 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root.

Scale this result as needed for any particular problem. Here, the scale factor is 6 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: answer is c!

ok i got to organize the

3/15 and 12/55

3*

aha

3*4 equals 12 but not

a: no

b:

8/24 12/35

no

gautie

it's c

5/18 = 25/90

5*5=25

18*5 = 90

hope that you!

one more happy customer!
