EXAMPLE 4 Use Theorem 10.6
SOLUTION
Chords QR and ST are congruent, so by Theorem 10.6 they are equidistant from C. Therefore, CU = CV.
CU = CV
2x = 5x – 9
x = 3
So, CU = 2x = 2(3) = 6.
Use Theorem 10.6.
Substitute.
Solve for x.
In the diagram of C, QR = ST = 16. Find CU.

Since CU = CV. Therefore Chords QR and ST are equidistant from center and from theorem 10.6 QR is congruent to ST
SOLUTION
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 4
QR = STQR = 32
Use Theorem 10.6.
Substitute.
6. QR

QU = 16
Substitute.
7. QU
2So QU = QR1
2So QU = (32)1

SOLUTION
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 4
In the diagram in Example 4, suppose ST = 32, and CU = CV = 12. Find the given length.8. The radius of C
So QC2 = 162 + 122
So QC2 = 256 + 144So QC2 = 400So QC = 20
So QC2 = QU2 + CU2 By Pythagoras Theorem
Substitute
Square
Add
Simplify
ANSWER The radius of C = 20
