The ratio of pressure 2 to 1 us 5.48/1= 5.48 rounded off as 5.5.

Referring to table A.2 of modern compressible flow then M_{\beta_1}=2.2

Also

M_{\beta_1}=M_1 sin \beta and making sin\beta the subject of the formula then

sin\beta=\frac {2.2}{3.5}\\\beta=38.94^{\circ}

Making reference to \theta-\beta-M diagram then

\theta=23.7^{\circ}
