Two circles intersect and they have a common chord 12 cm long. The measure of the angles formed by the common chord and a radius of each circle to the points of intersection of the circles is 45°. Find the length of the radius of each circle.
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
