Plug into the equation of the ellipsoid:
Complete the square:
Then the intersection is such that
which resembles the equation of a circle, and suggests a parameterization is polar-like coordinates. Let

Answer:
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, you need to make proportion and find x.
12:16=18:x
We multiply 12 by x and 16 by 18:
12x=288
Divide by 12 both sides :
x=24
Linear pair angles are always supplementary.
So,
(2x+10) +(3x+10) = 180
5x+20 = 180
5x =180-20
5x=160
x= 160/5
x=32
Hence, the angles are 74 & 104
