Solution

The correct options are
A 50
B 12AOB
In Δ OAB,
OA = OB [radii]
OAB=OAOBA=40
[angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
Also,
AOB+40+40=180
[angle sum property of a triangle]
AOB+40+40=180
AOB=18080=100
We know that, in a circle, the angle subtended by an arc at the centre is twice the angle subtended by it at the remaining part of the circle.
AOB=2ACB
100=2ACB
ACB=1002=50
