Answer:

2.34 cm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle at the centre (θ) = 34°

Radius (r) = 4 cm

Length of chord (C) =?

The length of the chord can be obtained as follow:

C = 2rSine(θ/2)

C = 2 × 4 × Sine(34/2)

C = 8 × Sine 17

C = 8 × 0.2924

C = 2.34 cm

Therefore, the lenght of the chord is 2.34 cm.
