Answer:

  33. 15 sides

  34. 24 sides

  35. 40 sides

  36. 60 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the number of sides of a regular polygon with interior angles of 156° or 165°, and with exterior angles of 9° or 6°.

Sides and angles

The sum of all exterior angles is 360°, so the relationship between the number of sides n and the measure of exterior angle θ is ...

  n = 360°/θ

Each exterior angle is the supplement of the adjacent interior angle. For interior angle φ, the corresponding number of sides is ...

  n = 360°/(180° -φ)

33. φ = 156°

  n = 360°/(180° -156°) = 360/24 = 15

The polygon has 15 sides.

34. φ = 165°

  n = 360°/(180° -165°) = 360/15 = 24

The polygon has 24 sides.

35. θ = 9°

  n = 360°/9° = 40

The polygon has 40 sides.

36. θ = 6°

  n = 360°/6° = 60

The polygon has 60 sides.
