Answer:

x - y = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠ NOP and ∠ NOQ are complimentary then ∠ POQ = 90°

Since JOK is a straight line then

∠ JOP + ∠ POQ + ∠ QOK = 180 , that is

76 + 90 + y = 180

166 + y = 180 ( subtract 166 from both sides )

y = 14

Since MON is a straight line then

∠ MOK + ∠ KOQ + ∠ QON = 180, that is

x + 14 + 34 = 180

x + 48 = 180 ( subtract 48 from both sides )

x = 132

Thus

x - y = 132 - 14 = 118
