Answer #1

In the first step, alkene gets protonated and forms carbocation. since the carbocation is not stable (Generally oxygen attached carbon will not bear positive charge) it undergoes another resonance contributor where positive charge bearing on the oxygen atom. Then bromine anion was attacked sp2 carbon to give the product.
