A) \[6\sqrt{3}\,cm\]
B) \[6\,cm\]
C) \[5\sqrt{3}\,cm\]
D) \[5\,cm\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Let two circles with centre A and B. Here \[\Delta \,AOC\cong \Delta BOC\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,AO=BO\Rightarrow AO=BO=\frac{6}{2}=3\,cm\] \[AC=6\text{ }cm\] (Radius of circle) \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,O{{C}^{2}}=A{{C}^{2}}-A{{O}^{3}}=36-9=27\] \[\therefore \,\,\,OC=\sqrt{27}=3\sqrt{3}\,cm\] \[\therefore \] Length of common chord (CD) \[=2\times 3\sqrt{3}=\,\underline{\mathbf{6}\sqrt{\mathbf{3}}\,\mathbf{cm}}\]You need to login to perform this action.
