Detailed Solution

Concept: Every angle of a cyclic quadrilateral isCBE=ADC= on a circle (circumscribed circle), and the sum of any two opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180˚.

Here, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.

When one of the sides of cyclic quadrilateral is produced, then the exterior angle will be equal to the opposite interior angle. 

CBE=ADC=70°

Since angle subtended by an arc of circle at the centre is twice the angle subtended by the arc on circumference,

AOC=2ADC=2×70°=140°

Hence, the value of AOC is 140°
