I will take a crack at it...

I think there is just alot of 'fluff' in there from the test writer about equal angles, circles and radii (if that is even a real word)...

If you just block everything out besides triangle CAO then you can use the external angle rule.

Statement 1 tells us:
CAO + OCA = 60 degrees which is insufficient

Statement 2 tells us:
OCA = 40 degrees also insufficient

But taken together you get your answer... 20 degrees

Looks really simple to me and that probably means I am wrong, but it gets the discussion going!
