Answer:

8 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming the difference of 9° is between their interior angles.

The formula for the interior angle of a regular polygon is 180° - 360°/n, where n is the number of sides.

As the number of sides increase, the interior angle increases.

Therefore 180° - 360°/(5x) = 180° - 360°/(4x) + 9°.

180° - 360°/(5x) = 180° - 360°/(4x) + 9°

360°/(4x) = 360°/(5x) + 9°

90°/x = 72°/x + 9x°/x

=> 90° = 72° + 9x°

9x° = 18°

x = 2.

Hence the number of sides of the regular polygons are 8 and 10.

The length of the red line segment is 6, and the length of the blue line segment is 4. how long is the major axis of the ellipse
juin [17]

An ellipse is divided into two axes, the longer axis is the major axis and the shorter axis is the minor axis. The length of the major axis of an ellipse is equal to the sum of two distance: the distance between any point on the ellipse and one on focus and the distance between the same point and the other focus. The focus is the point that helps define an ellipse and every ellipse has two foci. These two distance are also called the red line segment and blue line segment. Given 6 for red line segment and 4 for blue line segment therefore, the length of the major axis of the ellipse is 10.

HELP! What is the value of X that will make A parallel to B? WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
solong [7]

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Those are alternate exterior angles.  IF the lines A and B are parallel, then those angles are equal.  Set them equal to each other and solve for x:

5x + 9 = 6x - 2

Combine like terms:

11 = x
