Solution

The correct options are
A ABC=90
B ACB=30
C ACD=90

ACD=90 [Tangent at any point of a circle and the radius through this point are perpendicular to each other)
ACD=ABC=90 [Angles in alternate segments are equal]
The angle between a tangent and a chord through the point of contact is equal to an angle in the alternate segment.

Consider ΔABC,
BAC+ACB+ABC=180
60+ACB+90=180 [Given, BAC=60]
ACB=180150ACB=30
Options (a), (b), (c) are true.
