Math Problem Statement
Solution
This image shows a right triangle where one leg has a length of 3, and the hypotenuse has a length of 10. The angle is marked opposite the leg of length 3. To solve for , we can use trigonometric relationships.
Since the opposite leg is 3 and the hypotenuse is 10, we can use the sine function: Now, let's calculate using this relationship:
Let me calculate that for you.The angle is approximately .
