How do you find the measure of an arc knowing only the chord of arc and radius?

you have a triangle formed by the radius on 2 and the chord on the other. the angle in that triangle that is opposite the chord, find its measure in radians take that measure (in radians) and multiply it by the radius to get the arc length


What is the Formula for calculating chord length?

Assume you mean the chord of a circle? If the angle between the two radii from the ends of the chord is A, and the radius of the circle is R, the chord length L will be L = 2RsinA/2. You can prove this easily by joining the point bisecting the chord to the centre, you then have two rightangled triangles, with an included angle of A/2, and an opposite side of L/2. So sinA/2 = L/2R.


If a circle has a diameter of 15 inches can it also have a chord of 20 inches and how?

No. A chord is a straight line drawn between any two points on the circumference of a circle. The longest chord is when the points are on opposite sides of the centre of the circle (and passes through the centre of the circle). The straight line which joins the points on opposite sides of the centre (through the centre) is called the diameter of the circle. Therefore the longest chord possible is the diameter of the circle. A circle with a diameter of 15 in can have a chord with a maximum length of 15 in.


When is a Chord a diameter?

The longest chord of a circle is its diameter


In a circle whose diameter is 20in and a chord is 6in from the center what is the length of the chord?

the chord is 4in long

What is the longest chord of the circle?

The longest chord possible in a circle is one that is from one point on the circumference to its opposite point i.e. a chord that bisects the circle. Or to put it simply one straight down the middle

Which chord is lighter a major chord or a minor chord?

Generally, a minor chord has a darker sound.


If a radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects that chord?

If radius of a circle intersects a chord then it bisects the chord only if radius is perpendicular to the chord.


If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord at what point does it intersect the chord?

The radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a chord intersects the chord at its midpoint, so it is said to bisect the chord.


Which triad types contain a perfect fifth between the root and the fifth?

There are two main triad types (chords) that contain a perfect fifth between the root and the fifth: the major chord and the minor chord. The major chord is created by starting with a note (the root), adding a major third on top of that, and adding a minor third on top of that note. A C major chord would look like this: C, E, G (with the E and the G stacked on top of the C). The minor chord is created by starting with a note (again, the root), adding a minor third, and then adding a major third--just the opposite of a major chord. A C minor chord would look like this: C, Eb (E-flat), G.


Why can a chord be a diameter?

because the chord can be determine by the diameter and the diameter can be determine by the chord.
