Answer:answer is 60(A)

Explanation - we can get 90 degree angle only when a line joining two opposite vertices of the polygon form the 2 vertex of triangle..(property of circle)

No. Of right angled traingles=10*6=60

(as there can be 12/2=6 lines joining 12 opposite vertices, and in each triangle the third vertex can be be anyone among the 10 vertex left)
