Correct Answer: 96°


Solution : The points D, E, and F lie in a circle with centre O.
$\angle$DEF = 48$^{\circ}$
The angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
According to the concept,
2$\angle$DEF = $\angle$DOF
⇒ 2(48$^{\circ}$) = $\angle$DOF
⇒ $\angle$DOF = 96$^{\circ}$
Hence, the correct answer is 96$^{\circ}$.
