Answer:

Top Left (<A) = 86 degrees // Top Right (<B) = 112 degrees // Bottom Left (<C) = 68 degrees // Bottom Right (<D) = 94 degrees

Explanation:

So with inscribed quadrilaterals opposing corners are supplementery. This means they will add to 180 degrees. So first what we can do is set (x + 2) and (x - 6) equal to 180 ----> 2x - 4 = 180 ----> 2x = 184 ----> x = 92

So if x = 92 then <A = 86 degrees //// <B = 112 degrees //// <C must equal 68 degrees because <B and <C are supplementery //// <D = 94 degrees
