Answer: B. $150^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture, we can see a circle with two perpendicularly intersecting chords .

The measure internal angle made by intersecting of chords : $90^{\circ}$

The measure of minor arc : $30^{\circ}$

The formula to find the internal angle is given by :-

$\theta=\dfrac{\text{Minor arc + major arc}}{2}$

Let x be the Major arc AC, the we have the following equation:-

$90^{\circ}=\dfrac{30^{\circ}\text{ + x}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 30^{\circ}+x=180^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=180^{\circ}-30^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=150^{\circ}$

Hence, the measure of $\overarc{AC}=150^{\circ}$

The center of a circle lies on _____.

algol [13]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

A) every diameter

The center of a circle lies on every diameter.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

B) The circle: A circle is a two-dimensional shape where all points are the same distance from the center. So this definition doesn't match the definition of the center of the circle. The center is just a point not several ones.

C) A tangent line: obviously this definition is false. A tangent line is a line not a point.

D) Every chord: A chord is any line segment between two points on a circle. The only chord that passes through is the diameter. So this definition does not include all the chords of a circle

A) Every diameter: This is the correct option! A diameter is any chord that passes through the center.
