D) 25 cm
Answer:<\/strong> A) 5\u221a2 cm

<\/mark><\/strong>A) 0
B) r\/2
C) r\u221a3\/2
D) r\/\u221a2
Answer:<\/strong> B) r\/2
Explanation:<\/strong> Let chord length = r. Half-chord = r\/2. In right triangle with hypotenuse r (radius) and half-chord r\/2, perpendicular distance d = \u221a(r\u00b2 \u2212 (r\/2)\u00b2) = \u221a(r\u00b2 \u2212 r\u00b2\/4) = \u221a(3r\u00b2\/4) = (r\u221a3)\/2.
Wait \u2014 that yields (r\u221a3)\/2, not r\/2. But the question asked: “perpendicular distance from centre to a chord that is equal to the radius” \u2014 chord length = r. Then d = \u221a(r\u00b2 \u2212 (r\/2)\u00b2) = (r\u221a3)\/2.
(Final Answer:) C) r\u221a3\/2.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

B) Twice the sum of squares of diagonals
C) Half the sum of squares of diagonals

Answer:<\/strong> D) Twice the sum of squares of the sides
Explanation:<\/strong> Actually, for parallelogram with sides a,b and diagonals p,q: p\u00b2 + q\u00b2 = 2(a\u00b2 + b\u00b2). So p\u00b2 + q\u00b2 = 2(a\u00b2 + b\u00b2)<\/strong>. The question asked sum of squares of sides equals? It’s (a\u00b2 + b\u00b2) = (p\u00b2 + q\u00b2)\/2.
(Final statement:)<\/strong> Correct relation is sum of squares of diagonals equals twice sum of squares of sides. So Answer: A) Sum of squares of diagonals<\/strong> (if question intended equality direction).
\u2014 To avoid ambiguity, interpret as: p\u00b2 + q\u00b2 = 2(a\u00b2 + b\u00b2).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
