B) 35
the formula is .5(outer angle - inner angle) = .5(100-30)=.5*70=35

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

If two cords intersect outside a circle then the measure of the angle formed is one-half the absolute difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.


\angle DCB=(1)/(2)(arc(AE)-arc(BD))


\angle DCB=(1)/(2)(100-30)


\angle DCB=(1)/(2)(70)


\angle DCB=35

The measure of angle C is 35 degree. The correct option is B.
