Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

To find the value of 'a' we will use the tangent-chord theorem,

"Angle formed by the chord and a tangent to the circle measure the half of the intercepted minor arc"

Angle 'a' is formed between the chord and the tangent.

Measure of the intercepted arc = (2 × 52)°

Therefore, measure of the angle 'a' =
(104)/(2)

a = 52°

Therefore, Option (A) will be the correct option.
