I don’t have enough information to give a numeric value. Right now you’ve only given an expression for the measure: m∠D = 4x + 9 (degrees). To find a numerical measure you must also have an equation that determines x (for example ∠D is supplementary or complementary to another angle, congruent to another angle, is an interior angle of a polygon with known sum, or x is given).

Common ways to proceed (pick the one that matches your problem):

- If ∠D is complementary to ∠E and m∠E = 2x + 11, then
(4x+9) + (2x+11) = 90 → 6x + 20 = 90 → x = 70/6 = 35/3 → m∠D = 4(35/3)+9 = (140/3)+9 = 167/3 ≈ 55.67°.

- If ∠D is supplementary to ∠E and m∠E = 3x + 17, then
(4x+9) + (3x+17) = 180 → 7x + 26 = 180 → x = 22 → m∠D = 4(22)+9 = 97°.

- If ∠D equals another angle given as 5x − 3 (vertical or congruent), set 4x+9 = 5x−3 → x = 12 → m∠D = 4(12)+9 = 57°.

Give me the rest of the problem (the other angle expression, whether the angles are supplementary/complementary/congruent, or the value of x), or upload the diagram, and I’ll solve for m∠D.
