Answer:


\huge\sf\red{Solution :- }

Here Given,

KL = 6 cm , LM = LO + OM = 10 cm & KM = x cm

LKM is a right angled traingle it is because

LKM = 90° [Angles of semicircle]

By Using Pythagoras theorem :-

KM² = LM² - KL²

KM² = 10² - 6²

KM² = 100 - 36

KM = 64

KM = 8 cm

Hence, The Value of KM is 8 cm
