Answer:

(B)94°is the correct option

Explanation:

From the given figure, it is given that DE is parallel to XY and is also cut by a transversal.

Thus, by using the property of the parallel lines and the transversal,

m∠y=94° as they form alternate angle pair, thus by alternate angle property, m∠y=94°.

Thus, Option B is correct.

we know that

y=94°--------> by alternate interior angles

therefore

the answer is
