Answer:

m<B = 58 degrees, m<C = 63 degrees

Explanation:

let's find y!

angles B and A are complementary, so they should equal 90

therefore, B + A = 90

substitute

4y + 8y - 6 =90

12y = 96

y=8, and m<B = 8y-6; so m<B = 58

angles C and D are equal because of vertical angles

therefore, C = D

substitute

7x=5x+18

2x=18

x=9

m<C = 7x, so m<C = 63
