Step-by-step explanation:

inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal.

the central angle of a circle is twice any inscribed angle subtended by the same arc.

the first statement tells us that the 53° angle as well as y stay the same size no matter where on their arcs (between the 2 points connected to O) they would be. so, we don't need to bother with any line lengths.

the 2nd statement tells us that x = 2×53 = 106°. the 53° and x angles refer to the short arc on the right of the 2 points connected to O.

and y and x refer to the larger arc on the left of the 2 line connected to O. that means according to the second statement : 360-x (the big angle around O) = 2y

so,

360 - 106 = 2y

254 = 2y

y = 127°
