Question 977235: Suppose angle A and angle B are complementary angles., and angle C and angle D are also complementary angles. If measure of angle A = 2x + 3 measure of angle B = y-2, measure of angle C = 2x-y, and measure of angle D = x-1, find the values of x and y, and measures of angle A,B,C and D.

Since A and B are complementary:



Likewise,



Solve the 2X2 linear system for and , then substitute these values into the given expressions to derive A, B, C, and D
