You can determine AB with this image to the right of an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Virgo.
For CDE you will need two deep sky objects. These are two globular clusters which are visible in a small telescope. You will need their number designations to get CDE. This is a cluster in the constellation of Saggitarius which will give CD, Here is the image of a cluster in the constellation of Ophiuchus which will give E.
