Answer:

44.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Hypotenuse = 7

Longer leg = 5 (adjacent])

Let the acute angle angle between both sides be x

According to SOH CAH TOA

Cos theta = adj/hyp

Cos x = 5/7

x= arccos (5/7)

x = arccos (0.7143)

x = 44.4degrees

Hence he measure of the acute angle that is included between the longer leg and the hypotenuse is 44.4 degrees
