In a circle with centre $P$,$AB$ is a diameter and point $C$ is a point other than $A$ and $B$. If the radius of the circle is $34 \, cm$ and $AC = 32 \, cm$,then $BC = $ .......... $cm$.

In a circle with centre $P$,$AB$ is a chord. If the length of a radius is $17\,cm$ and $AB = 30\,cm$,then find the distance of $AB$ from the centre $P$. (in $,cm$)

$AB$ and $CD$ are two parallel chords of a circle with centre $P$. Also,the centre $P$ lies between the chords $AB$ and $CD$. If $AB = 20\,cm$,$CD = 48\,cm$,and the radius of the circle is $26\,cm$,find the distance between $AB$ and $CD$.

In the figure,$O$ is the centre of the circle,$BD = OD$ and $CD \perp AB$. Find $\angle CAB$.

State whether each of the following statements is true or false:
$(1)$ $A$ circle divides the plane on which it lies into three parts.
$(2)$ $A$ point,whose distance from the centre of a circle is greater than its radius,lies in the interior of the circle.

In the figure,if $OA = 5 \text{ cm}$,$AB = 8 \text{ cm}$,and $OD$ is perpendicular to $AB$,then $CD$ is equal to (in $\text{cm}$):
