well, we know WXYZ is a kite, so is a quadrilateral, namely it has 4 sides, and it has two congruent angles, so


\underset{in~degrees}{\textit{sum of all interior angles}}\\\\ S = 180(n-2) ~~ \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ n=4 \end{cases}\implies S=180(4-2)\implies S=360 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 94+94+112+\measuredangle ZYW=360\implies \implies \measuredangle ZYW=60

Check the picture below.
