Problem

In a circle with centre OO, chords ABAB and CDCD are equal and intersect at right angles at point PP inside the circle. (i) Prove that ∠AOB=∠COD\angle AOB = \angle COD. (ii) Prove that OPOP is the bisector of ∠AOC\angle AOC. (iii) If OP=4 cmOP = 4\,\text{cm} and the radius of the circle is 10 cm10\,\text{cm}, calculate the length of each chord.
