Answer
Join OB.
From figure,
OB = OA (Radius of same circle) ……..(1)
We know that,
Sides of rhombus are equal.
∴ OA = AB ………….(2)
From (1) and (2), we get :
⇒ OA = OB = AB
∴ OAB is an equilateral triangle.
Since, diagonals of rhombus bisect the interior angles.
In △OAB,
∠AOB =
∠OBA =
Since, each angle of equilateral triangle is 60°.
∴ ∠AOB = 60°
⇒
⇒ x = 120°.
∴ ∠OBA = 60°
⇒
⇒ y = 120°.
Substituting value of x and y in L.H.S. of equation x° + 2y° = 360°, we get :
⇒ 120° + 2(120°)
⇒ 120° + 240°
⇒ 360°.
Since, L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

In the given circle, ∠BAD = 95°, ∠ABD = 40° and ∠BDC = 45°.
Assertion (A) : To show that AC is a diameter, the angle ADC or angle ABC need to be proved to be 90°.
Reason (R) : In △ADB,
∠ADB = 180° - 95° - 40° = 45°
∴ Angle ADC = 45° + 45° = 90°
