Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

To find the angle subtended by the chord \(x+y=1\) at the center of the circle \(x^2+y^2=1\), we can follow these steps: Step 1: Identify the Circle and Chord: The given circle is \(x^2+y^2=1\), which has its center at the origin \((0,0)\) and a radius of 1 . The chord is given…
