Let $C$ be the circle $x^2+y^2=1$ in the $XY$-plane. For each $t \geq 0$,let $L_t$ be the line passing through $(0,1)$ and $(t, 0)$. Note that $L_t$ intersects $C$ in two points,one of which is $(0,1)$. Let $Q_t$ be the other point. As $t$ varies between $1$ and $1+\sqrt{2}$,the collection of points $Q_t$ sweeps out an arc on $C$. The angle subtended by this arc at $(0,0)$ is
