In the figure shown, line segments AB and AC are tangent to the circle (line segments tangent to a circle originating at a common point are congruent.) Additionally AB and CD are congruent and parallel. What is the measure of angle y?

Extend Line AB, to Angle DA'O' would also be 45.(Parallel to BC)

Hence 90+y+45=180
y=45
