Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 90°.

The largest chord of a circle is the diameter.

The angle subtended by the diameter of a circle at any point on the circle (other than the endpoints of the diameter) is always 90°. This is known as the angle in a semicircle theorem.

Thus, the angle subtended by the largest chord (the diameter) to a point on the same circle measures 90°.
