Discovering Radius/Chord Relationship

Today my geometry kiddos used our favorite Geogebra to construct a line through the center of a circle that is perpendicular to a chord.

Directions:
1. Draw a circle
2. Draw a chord (use a segment)
3. Construct a line through the center of the circle that is perpendicular to the chord.

4. Add a point at the intersection of the line and the chord; measure the segments.
5. What do you notice?

Make a conjecture and publish via digital portfolio.
