The distance between A and B and the distance between C and D are the same ( the 2 little lines indicate that).

This means the two arc lengths would also be the same.

Set the equations equal to each other,, solve for x then solve for the arc length.

AB = 3x +9

CD = 11x-71

3x+9 = 11x-71

Subtract 3x from both sides:

9 = 8x-71

Add 71 to both sides:

80 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8:

x = 10

Now solve for AB:

3x +9 = 3(10) +9 = 30+9 = 39

The answer is AB = 39
