Draw this.
\n" ); document.write( "The triangle formed by the line from the center to the chord. (perpendicular bisector) is 2 and the other leg (half the chord's length) is 3. The radius is the hypotenuse and is sqrt(13) cm.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The other chord has leg 1 and hypotenuse sqrt(13)
\n" ); document.write( "so the other leg , half the chord, is sqrt (12) or 2 sqrt(3)
\n" ); document.write( "Length of the chord is 4 sqrt(3) cm.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
