True or False? In a circle, radius OP intersects chord AC in point B so that AB = 8 units and BC = 8 units. This means that OP is perpendicular to AC.
True.
Because, OAC forms a triangle where:
- the base is AC,
- the other two sides are OA and OC with same length equal to OP (the radius of the circle)
- when you trace the bisectriz of AC you realize it is a line perpedicular to AC that intersects the center of the the circle, O
