I have tried this as well. Let <BDE = u, <BED = v, <CDE = x and <AED = y and it is possible to set up several linear equations, for instance...

u + v = 162
x + y = 111
u + x = 132
v + y = 141

...but I cannot get four independent ones, so there is no solution for a linear equation system. What do you get?
