respectively.
Join space straight M space and space straight P.
left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis space As space both space are space midpoints space PM perpendicular AB. space space space space space space space space
left parenthesis ii right parenthesis space PM perpendicular AB space it space pasess space through space centre space straight O.
Bisector space of space the space chord space is space always space perpendicular space to space the space chord space and space it space pasess space through space centre.
left parenthesis iii right parenthesis space PM space produced space will space bisect space the space major space arc space AB space as space it space pasess space through space centre space of space the space circle.
