Converse of Theorem 12.7
• If one chord is a perpendicular bisector of another chord, then the first chord is a diameter.
JK is a diameter of the circle.

Finding the Center of a Circle
• Theorem 12.7 can be used to locate a circle’s center as shown in the next few slides.
• Step 1: Draw any two chords that are not parallel to each other.

Ex. 7: Using Theorem 12.9
Because AB and DE are congruent chords, they are equidistant from the center. So CF CG. To find CG, first find DG.
CG DE, so CG bisects DE. Because DE = 8, DG = =4.

Ex. 7: Using Theorem 12.9
Then use DG to find CG. DG = 4 and CD = 5, so ∆CGD is a 3-4-5 right triangle. So CG = 3. Finally, use CG to find CF. Because CF CG, CF = CG = 3
