NB1: These are derived from the steady adiabatic energy and quasi one-dimensional flow relations, resp.
NB2: These equations are algebraic and nonlinear.
NB2: In the above equations,
NB3: Knowing any variable, can obtain a value for each of the other variables (and two values for
A / A* , why?)

Solution Procedure
Given M, it is straight forward to obtain all variables using equations (2) to (7).
Given any one of the other 6 variables, first obtain M from resp. equation, then the other variables.
