Respuesta :

Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] In\: \odot O, [/tex]

  • chords [tex] \overline{ML} [/tex] and [tex] \overline{AN} [/tex] are equidistant (7.2 units) from the center of the circle O.
  • Measures of the chords equidistant from the center of the circle are equal.
  • [tex] \therefore m(chord\:\overline{AN}) =m(chord\:\overline{ML}) [/tex]
  • [tex] \because m(chord\:\overline{ML}) = 12\: units [/tex]
  • [tex] \therefore m(chord\:\overline{AN}) = 12\: units [/tex]
