Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
< BAC = \(\frac{130}{2}\) (angle subtended at the centre)
< BAC = 65°
Also, x = 26° (theorem)
y = 65° - 26° = 39°
< AOC = 180° - (39° + 39°)
= 102°
< BAC = \(\frac{130}{2}\) (angle subtended at the centre)
< BAC = 65°
Also, x = 26° (theorem)
y = 65° - 26° = 39°
< AOC = 180° - (39° + 39°)
= 102°
