In the given figure, Ab is a diameter of the circle with centre O and
| In the given figure, Ab is a diameter of the circle with centre O and XY is the tangent at a point C. If
, then what is the value (in degrees) of
?



A. 45
B. 35
C. 55
D. 65
Right Answer is: C
SOLUTION
Angle ACX=35 °
Angel ACX= angle ABC=35 ° (Rule: The angle that a chord makes with the tangent is equal to the angle that it makes in the circle.)
Angle BCY=180-angle ACB-ACX=180-90-35=55 °
Angle BCY=angle BAC=55 °
