Solution 3 (Law of Cosines)
Let be the center of the circle. Notice how , where is the radius of the circle. By applying the law of cosines on triangle ,
Similarly, by applying the law of cosines on triangle ,
By subtracting these two equations, we get We can rearrange it to get
Because both and are both positive, we can safely divide both sides by to obtain . Because ,
Through power of a point, we can find out that , so

Solution 5 (Basically Solution 2 With Motivation)
Basically, by PoP, you have that Therefore, as basically, once you find the problem is done. Now, this is an IMPORTANT concept: If you have a circle which you know the radius of and you want to find the length of a chord of that circle, drop an altitude from the center of the circle to the chord to find distance between the center of the circle and the chord.
In this case, let be the midpoint of chord Notice that now we can use our angle, since is a triangle so that and However, we have that so that Now, notice that so that and Therefore,
This may not be the “shortest solution”, but in my opinion is very well motivated and doesn’t require much creativity. [Not requiring much creativity, it also saves more time than you’d think. ;)]

Solution 6 (Double Power of a Point)
For ease of notation, let and . Extend to point until is perpendicular to . It's given that , so, by vertical angles, we have .
Since is a right triangle, we have and . Hence,
By Power of a Point, we have
Isolating the variables after expanding gives
Using Power of a Point again, we have
To get , we can perform the operation . Plugging these values in,

Solution 7 (Cheating)
Perhaps not reliable in general, but very useful as a last resort. The choice of the radius is strange, and is probably motivated by a nice answer in the end, so we only consider integer options. Notice that a 5 also appears in the condition , therefore it will likely be present in the answer as well; the only integer containing a factor of 5 amongst the choices is 100, thus the answer is
~Maths357
Solution 7 (Coordinate Geometry + Vieta)
set the origin at E (instead of circle center O) will reduce calculation. line CD is y= -x , let OE = a , circle radius r=, circle intersects line y = -x at 2 points and ,
substitute y with x , circle becomes
will be 2 roots of above quadratic and we will apply vieta below
plug in a = OE = OB - OE = and we get answer .
