Assertion (A) : In the figure below, O is the center of the circle and ∠AOC = 160°. Then x = 100° and y = 80°.
Reason (R) : The angle, which an arc of a circle subtends at the centre of the circle is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.

Answer
We know that,
The angle, which an arc of a circle subtends at the centre of the circle is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.
From figure,
⇒ 2x = ∠AOC
⇒ 2x = 160°
⇒ x = = 80°.
We know that,
Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°.
⇒ x + y = 180°
⇒ 80° + y = 180°
⇒ y = 180° - 80° = 100°.
∴ Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is true.
Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
