// use of wp_enqueue_style() for specific page
// let’s check we are in the specific page
// we can use page ID or page Slug
function webextent_enqueue_styles() {
    if ( is_page( 33 ) ) {
      wp_enqueue_style( ‘custom-stylesheet’, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
     }
  }
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'webextent_enqueue_styles' );

use of wp_enqueue_script() for a specific page

// let’s check we are in the right page

function webextent_name_scripts() {
 if ( is_page( 34 ) {
     wp_enqueue_script( 'webextent-custom-script', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/webextent-custom.js', array(), '1.0.0', true );
  }
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'webextent_name_scripts' );
