Can someone please explain this more clearly?
Usind the property of Central angle:
\(∠EAB = \frac{1}{2}(∠EOB)\)
\(∠EAB = \frac{1}{2}(48° + 48° + 132°) = \frac{228°}{2} = 114°\)
Col. A: 114°
Col. B: 130°
Hence, option B

Assume that O is the center of the circle. The mes of angle EOB that intercepts the small arc EB is (360- (48×2)/2= 132
The mes of the external angle EOB that intercept the large arc EB is 360-132= 228
Angle EAB intercept the same large arc that the angle center EOB. So mes of EAB = 228/2=114
Quant A < quant B
