Correct Answer: $47.5^{\circ}$
Solution : Given: AB is the diameter of a circle with centre O. P is a point on it. As we know, the angle subtended by an arc at the centre is twice the angle subtended by the same arc on the circle. $\angle AOP= 2\angle ABP$ ⇒ $95^{\circ} = 2\angle ABP$ ⇒ $\angle ABP= \frac{95^{\circ}}{2}$ ⇒ $\angle OBP= 47.5^{\circ}$ Hence, the correct answer is $47.5^{\circ}$.

Question : AB is the diameter of a circle with centre O. If P is a point on the circle such that $\angle$AOP=110°, then the measure of $\angle$OBP is:
Question : AB is a chord in the minor segment of a circle with centre O. C is a point on the minor arc (between A and B ). The tangents to the circle at A and B meet at a point P. If $\angle \mathrm{ACB}=108^{\circ}$, then $\angle \mathrm{APB}$ is equal to:
Question : AB and CD are two chords in a circle with centre O and AD is a diameter. AB and CD produced meet a point P outside the circle. If $\angle A P D=25^{\circ}$ and $\angle D A P=39^{\circ}$, then the measure of $\angle C B D$ is:
Question : In a circle with centre O, AB is the diameter. P and Q are two points on the circle on the same side of the diameter AB. AQ and BP intersect at C. If $\angle {POQ}=54^{\circ}$, then the measure of $\angle {PCA}$ is:
Question : AB is the chord of a circle such that AB = 10 cm. If the diameter of the circle is 20 cm, then the angle subtended by the chord at the centre is?
