Answer
Angle of a circle is 360°.
⇒ ∠AOB + ∠AOC + ∠BOC = 360°
⇒ ∠AOB + 80° + 130° = 360°
⇒ ∠AOB + 210° = 360°
⇒ ∠AOB = 360° - 210°
⇒ ∠AOB = 150°.
From figure,
⇒ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB (∵ angle subtended by an arc at the center = double the angle subtended by it any point on the remaining part of the circle.)
⇒ 150° = 2∠ACB
⇒ ∠ACB =
⇒ ∠ACB = 75°
⇒ x° = 75°.
Hence, the value of x = 75°.
