Answer:
24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The altitude from the centre to the chord is 5 cm and bisects the chord.
The radius of the circle is 26 cm ÷ 2 = 13 cm
There is a right triangle formed with legs 5 and x ( x is half the chord )
The hypotenuse is the radius, then using Pythagoras' identity
x² + 5² = 13²
x² + 25 = 169 ( subtract 25 from both sides )
x² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 
= 12
Then
length of chord = 2x = 2 × 12 = 24 cm
Sum of all exterior angles = 360°
Size of one exterior angle = 40°
Number of sides = 360 ÷ 40 = 9

It raining in Alaska and raining in Ohio are independent events. One does not control the other or affect the other in any way.
For two independent events (let's call them A and B), the Probability of A and B both occurring is given by P(A and B) = P(B) x P(B).
For this problem, let A = rain in Ohio and B= rain in Alaska.
P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B)
Time taken by Ria to paint a room = 4 hours
Time taken by Destiny to paint a room = 6 hours
If they work together, they complete 1 job. So,
The LCD of 4 and 6 is 12
Hence, both of them can paint the room in 
hours or 2.4 hours.
