Please provide answer with explanations

Ans is B 30 since AB is equal to the radius of the circle triangle OAB is equilateral. hence angle AOB is 60 x=1/2*angle AOB=30

Here, the AB is equal to the Radius. So if we draw a triangle with AB as the base and the third vertex as the centre O, we get a triangle AOB. Now Angle x and Angle AOB is made by the same base AB. Now we know angle at the centre of the circle is twice the angle at the circumference. or, angle AOB = 2* angle x Now, triangle AOB is equilateral. 60 = 2*x or, x=30 Thus B

this is the theory behind 'the angle at the center of the circle is twice the angle at the circumference'.Let me know if it clarifies the questions. here angle AOB=2(x+y)=angle ACB
