$ABCD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral
$ \therefore \angle BAD +\angle BCD =180^{\circ} $
(pair of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary)
$ \Rightarrow \angle BCD =180^{\circ}-96^{\circ}=84^{\circ}$
$\therefore \angle BCE =180^{\circ}-84^{\circ}=96^{\circ} $
Similarly, $BCEF$ is a cyclic quadrilateral
$ \therefore \angle B C E+\angle B F E=180^{\circ} $
(pair of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary)
$ \therefore \angle B F E=180^{\circ}-96^{\circ}=84^{\circ} $
