Answer:

z = 66

y = 120

Explanation:

First, we can solve for z because it is supplementary to 114°.

114° + z° = 180°

-114° -114°

z° = 66°

z = 66

Now, we can solve for y using the fact that the interior angles of a quadrilateral add to 360° (think about a rectangle: 4 x 90°).

We have to use the z value that we solved for earlier.

81° + 93° + y° + z° = 360°

↓ substituting in z-value

81° + 93° + y° + 66° = 360°

↓ combining like terms

240° + y° = 360°

-240° -240°

y° = 120°

y = 120
