Answer:
The radius of circle O is 13.
∠LMP intercepts a semicircle.
LP is a diameter of circle O
Explanation:
Find the diagram attached
From the circle, PL is the diameter of the circle;
Also, LMP intercepts a semicircle since the triangle LMP is a triangle in the semicircle of the circle.
According to pythagoras theorem;
ML²+MP² = PL²
24²+10² = PL²
576 + 100 = PL²
676 = PL²
Swap
PL² = 676
PL = √676
PL = 26
Since radius = diameter/2
Radius of the circle = 26/2
Radius of the circle = 13
Hence the radius of circle O is 13.
