Correct option is (A) 12 cm

Longest chord in a circle is diameter of the circle.

\(\therefore\) Diameter of circle = 24 cm

\((\because\) Given that longest chord in the circle is 24 cm)

\(\Rightarrow\) 2r = 24 cm

\(\Rightarrow\) r = \(\frac{24}2\) = 12 cm

\(\therefore\) Radius of the circle is 12 cm.
