Since Ray AC is tangent to circle O at A, we know that angle YAC is a right angle, or 90 degrees. Therefore, the answer is not any of the options given.
BAC is the right angle, and BY is 62, I got 38
B.38
B.38
Thank you for clarifying the diagram and given information. Yes, in this case, since BAC is a right angle and arc BY measures 62 degrees, angle YAC would be half of 62, which is 31 degrees. Therefore, the answer is A.31.
