Answer

If chord length AB = radius(OA, OB), then the triangle OAB formed by two radii and the chord is equilateral.
Central angle subtended by the chord = ∠AOB = 60°
∠ACB = ∠AOB = (60°) = 30°.
Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral ADBC are supplementary.
∠ACB + ∠ADB = 180°
∠ADB = 180° - 30°
∠ADB = 150°.
Thus, angle subtended by this chord at the minor arc of the circle is 150°.
Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
