Answer:

30°

Explanation:

Line AB and BC are tangents to the given circle.


\angle \: ABC = (1)/(2) ( 210 - 150)


\angle \: ABC = (1)/(2) (60) = 30 \degree

Alternatively, <ABC and <AOC are supplementary because AB and BC are tangents.


\angle \: ABC + 150 \degree = 180 \degree


\angle \: ABC = 180 \degree - 150 \degree = 30 \degree

The correct choice is A.
