Given:

A quadrilateral inscribed in a circle.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

If a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, then it is known as cyclic quadrilateral and the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary angles, it means their sum is 180 degrees.


5x^\circ+110^\circ=180^\circ [Supplementary angles]


5x^\circ=180^\circ -110^\circ


x^\circ=(70^\circ)/(5)


x^\circ=14^\circ

The value of x is 14 degrees.


2y^\circ+104^\circ=180^\circ [Supplementary angles]


2y^\circ=180^\circ -104^\circ


y^\circ=(76^\circ)/(2)


y^\circ=38^\circ

Therefore, the value of x is 14 degrees and the value of y is 38 degrees.
