Answer:

y = 48° is the answer.

Explanation:

In the figure attached, length of small arc = 66°

This small arc makes an angle at the center of the circle = 66°

By definition, angle formed by the arc at the center is double of the measure of the angle inscribed by the small arc at the point on a circle.

Therefore, m (arc) = 66° = 2.(x)

x =
(66)/(2)=33

Similarly, y =
(96)/(2)=48

y = 48° will be the answer.
