Geometry

Solution:

Given, $\angle ABC =40^{\circ}$.
An angle subtended by an arc at the centre of the circle is double the angle subtended
by the same arc at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
$\angle AOC =2 \angle ABC =80^{\circ} $
$\therefore \text { Reflex } \angle AOC $
$=360^{\circ}-80^{\circ}=280^{\circ}$
