I began the same way as Beau with the drawing of a circle.  Then i had drawn a chord from one side to the other.  I then drew a line for the radius to one end of the chorde.  The distance D is the line intersecting the chord at a 90 degree angle.  Then you can use Pythagorean thm to find the distance L/2.  Then to find the PDF of the whole chord, i just used the formula with the integral and used the parameters or D and fx(x) as 2 times the L.
