Correct answer is (c) 90

For explanation I would say: Angle of repose is defined as the steepest angle of descent or dip. It is with relation to the horizontal plane to which a material can be piled. The maximum value for the angle of repose is 90 degrees. It is exactly perpendicular to the horizontal surface.
