Answer: 90

Explanation:

Given: A circle with center P and B and C are two points on circle such that

BP is perpendicular to PC, it gives
\angle{BPC}=90^(\circ)

We know that in a circle, the degree measure of an arc is equal to the measure of the central angle that intercepts the arc.

Therefore, the measure of
\overarc{BC}= Central angle made by
\overarc{BC}.

⇒ the measure of
\overarc{BC}=90^(\circ)
