Answer:

m(arc WXY) = 224°

Explanation:

By inscribed angle theorem,,

"Measure of intercepted arc is double of the inscribed angle"

m(arc WXY) = 2[m(∠YCW)]

Here, arc WXY is the intercepted arc and ∠YCW is the inscribed angle.

By substituting the value of inscribed angle,

m(arc WXY) = 2(112°)

= 224°

Therefore, measure of arc WXY is 224°.
