Chord Length in a Circle

Medium Additional Math Topics Trigonometry

A circle with a radius of 6 units has a central angle of 60 degrees. If a chord is drawn between the endpoints of this angle, what is the length of the chord?

You can use the formula for the length of a chord:

$$ L = 2r imes ext{sin}\left(\f\frac{\theta}{2}\right) $$

where $r$ is the radius and $\theta$ is the central angle in degrees.
