In the diagram, given is a circle with chord DF and tangent FG.

Given is the measurement of arc DEF = 184 degrees.

It says to find measurement of the angle ∠DFG = ?

We can use the formulas for Circle Angles as given below :-

Tangent-Chord Angle = Half of the measure of intercepted arc.

Angle ∠DFG = half of the measure of arc DEF.

Angle ∠DFG =
(1)/(2)*(184 \;degrees) = 92 \;degrees.

Hence, option D is correct, i.e. 92 degrees.
