Answer:

<h2>50.8°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the third side. We will then use the law of cosines to find the angle.

2√15² = 2√6² + b²

60 = 24 + b²

Subtract 24

36 = b²

b = 6

Now, that we have all three sides, we will use the law of cosines to figure out the angle.

c² = a² + b² - 2abCosC°

Substitute the values in.

6² = 2√15² + 2√6² - 2(2√15)(2√6)CosC°

36 = 60 + 24 - 2(37.947331922)CosC°

36 = 60 + 24 - 75.894663844CosC°

36 = 84 - 75.894663844CosC°

Subtract 84

-48 = -75.9CosC°

0.63241106719 = CosC°

Arccos (0.63241106719) = 50.77176844°

The largest acute angle is approximately 50.8°

1:15 pm + 5 minutes =1:20 PM  You add 5 minutes because your watch is slow then subtract 3 minutes because you thought the watch was 3 minutes fast. real time is 1:17 PM
 1:20 pm  - 3 minutes = 1:17 PM
