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 $47.5^{\circ}$.
