Answer:

x=100

y=109

Explanation:

For any quadrilateral (4-sided shape) inscribed in a circle (all 4 vertices of the quadrilateral are on the edge of the circle), there is a special relationship between certain pairs of angles within the quadrilateral.


Specifically, opposite angles (angles across from each other) must sum (add) to 180 degrees.

The angle measuring 80 degrees is opposite the angle measuring x degrees, so x + 80 = 180, implying x = 100.

In this case, the angle measuring 71 degrees is opposite the angle measuring y degrees. So, 71 + y = 180, which implies y = 109.
