A semi-circle of radius 8 cm, rocks back and forth along a line. The distance between the line on which the semi-circle sits and the line above is 12 cm. As it rocks without slipping, the semi-circle touches the line above at two points. (When the semi-circle hits the line above, it immediately rocks back in the other direction.) What is the distance between these two points, in millimetres, rounded off to the nearest whole number?
