I want to know if Ledger Gives Different Extended Public Keys for Both Segwit and Legacy Addresses, because i tried exporting my extended public key to recover BCH i mistakenly sent to a segwit address using https://bch.btc.com/docs/help/bch_segwit_recovery, but they said they xpub key is not associated with the address, but when i log in to ledger on chrome, i see the address there.

Yes. The xpubs are derived from your seed at different paths, so they will be different.
