Answer:

I don't have a picture but since it is a rhombus, I'll give it my best shot.

IF those two angles are across from each other, they are equal, then:

2x+4 = 5x-5

add 5 to each side of the equation:

2x+9 = 5x

subtract 2x from each side:

3x = 9

divide both sides by 3:

x = 3

IF those two angles are adjacent, their sum is 180°, then:

2x+4 + 5x-5 = 180°

combine like terms:

7x - 1 = 180

add 1 to each side of the equation:

7x = 181

divide both sides by 7:

x = 25.86
