Match the concepts in Column I with their corresponding properties in Column II:
| Column I (Concept) | Column II (Property) |
|---|---|
| A. Chord bisected by center | 1. Line is perpendicular to chord |
| B. Equal chords | 2. Subtend equal angles at center |
| C. Distance from center to chord | 3. Helps compare chord lengths |
| D. Perpendicular from center | 4. Bisects the chord |
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Chords of equal length in a circle subtend equal angles at the center, and chords bisected by the center exhibit similar properties.
The properties of equal chords are used to compare chord lengths.
If a perpendicular is drawn from the center to a chord, it divides the chord into two equal parts; thus, the distance from the center to the chord is related to the bisection of the chord.
A line drawn from the center is perpendicular to the chord.
A → 4, B → 2, C → 3, D → 1
'A perpendicular drawn from the center to a chord bisects that chord.'
