Solution
To find angle in the given right triangle , where is the right angle, we can use trigonometric ratios. Given:
- (adjacent side to angle )
- (hypotenuse)
We can use the cosine function, defined as:
Thus,
Now, to find angle , we take the inverse cosine (arccos):
Using a calculator to find the arccos:
So, angle is approximately .
