Answer:

m<Y = 68°

Explanation:

A tangent drawn to a circle makes a 90° angle with the radius that intersects it at the point of tangency. That means that m<X = 90°.

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°.

m<X + m<Y + m<Z = 180

90 + m<Y + 22 = 180

m<Y + 112 = 180

m<Y = 180 - 112

m<Y = 68
