उत्तर

36°

Explanation:

Join OA and OB.

Given,

AB is side of a regular pentagon.

∴ ∠AOB = `(360°)/5`​ = 72°

We know that,

The angle which an arc of a circle subtends at the center is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.

∴ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB

∠ACB = `(∠AOB)/2 = (72°)/2`​ = 36°
