10-3 Arc and Chords
You used the relationships between arcs and angles to find measures.
• Recognize and use relationships between arcs and chords.
• Recognize and use relationships between arcs, chords, and diameters.
Definition
A chord is a line segment with endpoints on a circle.
AB is a chord of ּסD
Where would you find the largest chord in any circle?
If the chord is not a diameter, then its endpoints divide the circle into a major and minor arc.

Find the distance from chord PQ to the center of ּסO
• The radius of circle O is 13 mm. Draw a radius connecting it to one end of the chord.
• Draw the perpendicular bisector from the center to the chord.
• How long is PR?• What theorem do you use to
find the distance from the chord to the center of the circle?
• OR2 + 52 = 132
• OR = 12 mm

CERAMIC TILE In the ceramic stepping
stone below, diameter AB is 18 inches long
and chord EF is 8 inches long. Find CD.
Step 1 Draw radius CE.
This forms right ΔCDE.
Step 2 Find CE and DE.
Since AB = 18 inches, CB = 9 inches. All
radii of a circle are congruent, so
CE = 9 inches.
Since diameter AB is perpendicular to EF,
AB bisects chord EF by Theorem 10.3. So,
DE = (8) or 4 inches.__12

Another way to determine if two chords in a circle are congruent is if they are the same distance from the center.
Since chords EF and GH are congruent, they
are equidistant from P. So, PQ = PR.
PQ = PR
4x – 3 = 2x + 3 Substitution
x = 3 Simplify.
So, PQ = 4(3) – 3 or 9
Answer: PQ = 9
