Answer
Join OA and OB.
Given,
AB is side of a regular pentagon.
∴ ∠AOB = = 72°.
We know that,
The angle which an arc of a circle subtends at the center is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.
∴ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB
∠ACB = = 36°.
Hence, Option 1 is the correct option.
