We know the CE = 10x + 18 and DE = 7x - 1 and D is the midpoint of CE

⇒ CE = 2 * DE

⇒ 10x + 18 = 2 * (7x - 1)

⇒ 10x + 18 = 14x - 2

⇒ -4x = -20

⇒ x = 5

Now we also know that BC = 9x - 3 and AC = CE = 10x + 18

⇒ AB = AC - BC

⇒ AB = 10x + 18 - (9x - 3)

⇒ AB = x + 21

Substituting the value of x,

⇒ AB = 5 + 21

⇒ AB = 26

Hence, the value of AB is 26 units.

Two of the exterior angles of an n sided polygon are each of 60 and the remaining exterior angle are of each 24 find the value o
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

12 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Two of the exterior angles are = 60

The rest are each 24 ;

Find n, the number of sides of the polygon

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 360

2 of the angles are 60° each ;

360 - (2 * 60)

360 - 120 = 240°

The remaining sides are 24° each ;

Hence, number of sides that are 24°

240° / 24° = 10 sides

Hence, total number of sides :

10 sides (14° each) + 2 sides (60° each)

10 + 2 = 12 sides
