1. **Problem Statement:** Find the values of angles $x$ and $y$ in the given circle diagrams using circle theorems and angle properties.
2. **Key Theorems and Rules:**
- **Inscribed Angle Theorem:** An angle inscribed in a circle is half the measure of its intercepted arc.
- **Angles in the Same Segment:** Angles subtended by the same chord and on the same side of the chord are equal.
- **Opposite Angles of Cyclic Quadrilateral:** Sum to 180°.
- **Vertical Angles:** Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal.

### Part a (Graph a):
3. Given:
- Angle at $D$ between chords $CD$ and $FD$ is $74^\circ$.
- Angle at $D$ between chords $BD$ and $FD$ is $28^\circ$.
- Angles $x$ at $C$ (two marked equal angles).
- Angle $y$ near $B$.
4. Since $x$ is marked twice at $C$, these two angles are equal.
5. The angle at $D$ between $CD$ and $FD$ is $74^\circ$, and between $BD$ and $FD$ is $28^\circ$.
6. The angle between $BD$ and $CD$ at $D$ is $74^\circ - 28^\circ = 46^\circ$.
7. By the Inscribed Angle Theorem, angle $x$ at $C$ subtends the same arc as angle at $D$ between $BD$ and $CD$, so:
$$x = \frac{1}{2} \times 46^\circ = 23^\circ$$
8. Angle $y$ near $B$ is an inscribed angle subtending the same arc as angle $x$ at $C$, so $y = x = 23^\circ$.

### Part b (Graph b):
9. Given:
- Angle $14^\circ$ at $C$ between chords $CF$ and $CG$.
- Angle $y$ at $G$ between $CG$ and $GB$.
- Angle $34^\circ$ outside near $E$ on extension of $CG$.
10. The external angle $34^\circ$ at $E$ equals the sum of the opposite interior angles $14^\circ + y$ (Exterior Angle Theorem):
$$34^\circ = 14^\circ + y$$
11. Solve for $y$:
$$y = 34^\circ - 14^\circ = 20^\circ$$
12. Angle $x$ is not explicitly marked in this part, so no $x$ to solve here.

**Final answers:**
- Part a: $x = 23^\circ$, $y = 23^\circ$
- Part b: $y = 20^\circ$
