Answer:

[tex]NQ=24\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Triangles ABM and CDN are congruent

so

CD=AB

AB=2AL ----> because the diameter divide the circle into two equal parts

CQ=AL=140/2=70 units

NC----> is the radius

NC=148/2=74 units ----> the radius is half the diameter

Applying Pythagoras Theorem find the value of NQ

[tex]NC^{2}=NQ^{2}+CQ^{2}[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]74^{2}=NQ^{2}+70^{2}[/tex]

[tex]NQ^{2}=74^{2}-70^{2}[/tex]

[tex]NQ^{2}=576[/tex]

[tex]NQ=24\ units[/tex]
