Solution

The correct option is B

100


Give OAC=20 and OBC=30

Let us draw aa line joining 'O' and 'C'

Now in Δ OAC

OA = OC

OCA= OAC

OCA=20

Similarly in Δ BOC

OB = OC

OCB= OBC

OCB=30

ACB= OCA+ OCB

=20+30

=50

Now AOB=2× ACB

(because The angle subtends by arc at centre is twice that it subtends at any point on the remaining part of circumference)

AOB=2×50

=100
