Correct Answer: 90º
Solution :
In a triangle, the angle between the incenter and any two sides is always $90^{\circ}$ plus half of the included angle. This is a property of the incenter of a triangle. Given that $\angle {BOC}=135^{\circ}$, it means that the included angle at A (i.e., $\angle {BAC}$) is twice the difference of $\angle {BOC}$ and $90^{\circ}$. $\angle {BAC} = 2 \times (\angle {BOC} - 90^{\circ}) = 2 \times (135^{\circ} - 90^{\circ}) = 90^{\circ}$ Hence, the correct answer is 90º.
