1. **State the problem:**
We have a circle with center O and points A, B, C, D on the circumference.
Given:
- AOD is a diameter.
- OB is parallel to DC.
- Angle BÔD = 140°.
Find the angles $t$, $y$, $x$, and $z$.
2. **Recall important facts:**
- The diameter subtends a right angle to any point on the circle, so any angle subtended by AOD on the circumference is 90°.
- Parallel lines imply equal alternate interior angles.
- The sum of angles around point O is 360°.
3. **Analyze angle BÔD = 140°:**
Since $\angle BÔD = 140^\circ$, the remaining angle around O on the diameter line AOD is $360^\circ - 140^\circ = 220^\circ$.
4. **Find angle AÔB:**
Since AOD is a straight line (diameter), $\angle AÔD = 180^\circ$.
Given $\angle BÔD = 140^\circ$, then $\angle AÔB = 180^\circ - 140^\circ = 40^\circ$.
5. **Find angle $t$ at B:**
Angle $t$ is the angle at B subtended by points A and D on the circle.
By the circle theorem, the angle at the circumference subtended by the same chord is half the angle at the center.
So, $t = \frac{1}{2} \times \angle AÔD = \frac{1}{2} \times 180^\circ = 90^\circ$.
6. **Find angle $y$ at C:**
Since OB is parallel to DC, angle $y$ at C equals angle $t$ at B (alternate interior angles).
Therefore, $y = t = 90^\circ$.
7. **Find angles $x$ and $z$ at D:**
Angles $x$ and $z$ at D are angles on the circle subtended by chords BC and BD.
Since AOD is diameter, angle $x$ (between C, D, B) is $90^\circ$ (angle in a semicircle).
Angle $z$ is supplementary to angle $x$ because they form a straight line at D.
So, $z = 180^\circ - x = 180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ$.
**Final answers:**
$$t = 90^\circ, \quad y = 90^\circ, \quad x = 90^\circ, \quad z = 90^\circ.$$
