As you know the exterior angle formed by m< BOA is 250 degrees.

The point where C is the point of vertical angles. Vertical angles form a linear pair.
Linear pair is Always of 180 degrees so,
250 - 180 = 70 degrees

we know that

The measure of the external angle is the semidifference of the arcs that it covers.

so


m\ angle\ BCA= (1)/(2) *(arc\ BOA-arc\ BA)\\\\ m\ angle\ BCA= (1)/(2) *(250-110)\\ \\ m\ angle\ BCA=70\ degrees

therefore

the answer is

The measure of angle BCA is equal to
70\ degrees
