Correct Answer: 70°


Solution :
Given:
$\angle$BOC $=\ 125^\circ$
BO and OC is angle bisector.
Now,
By angle bisector theorem
$\Rightarrow \angle BOC\ =\ 90^\circ\ +\ \frac{1}{2}\angle BAC$
$\Rightarrow 125^\circ\ =\ 90^\circ\ +\ \frac{1}{2}\angle BAC$
$\Rightarrow \angle BAC\ =\ 70^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is 70°
