a)  We can use the the "tangent-secant' theorem, here.....specifically....

m<BAC = 1/2 (minor arc BC - "x")

14 = 1/2 (112 - x)

28 = 112 - x

x = 112 - 28  = 84°

 

b) For this one we need to find the measure of minor arc CD ......"y" will be 1/2 of this.....

So we have...(360 - 112 - 84 ) =  164°

And 1/2 of this = 82°
