Question

HELP ???? Which is the correct statement ?

Answer 1

B. /EF/ /GF/ because both segments are the same distance from the centre of he circle A

Explanation:

Considering the given diagram, both /EF/ and /GF/ are chords. And the two chords are at the same distance to the centre of the circle. Thus /EF/ = /GF/, the two chords are equal in length.

Even, redrawing the chords in different segments of the circle and at same distance to the centre does not make them to be unequal.

Answer 2

b) EF = GF , as both of them are at equal distance from the center

Explanation:

Here we are given a ΔEFG inscribed in a circle. We have to determine whether EF = Gf and why ?

Here we see that the center is A

And EF and GF forms the chords of this circle.

The distance of these chords from the center is given as AD and DH . It is also given that both are equal.

The property of a circle says that

When chords are drawn at equal distance from the center , the chords are equal to each other. Hence we have EF and GF equal to each other.
