Answer:

∠A = 47 deg

∠B = 43 deg

∠C = 124.82 deg

∠D = 55.18 deg

Explanation:

recall that by definition:

Complementary angles : add up to 90 deg

Supplementary angles: add up to 180 deg

for ∠A and ∠B, they are complementary, i.e.

∠A + ∠B = 90

(4x+3) + (5x-12) = 90

4x + 3 + 5x - 12 = 90

9x - 9 = 90

9x = 90 + 9

9x = 99

x = 11

hence

∠A = 4x + 3 = 4(11) + 3 = 44+3 = 47 deg

∠B = 90 - 47 = 43 deg

for ∠A and ∠B, they are Supplementary, i.e.

∠C + ∠D = 180

8x-9+3x+5 = 180

x = 16.727 degrees

∠C = 8x - 9 = 8(16.727) - 9 = 124.82

∠D = 180 - 124.82 = 55.18
