Question

Determine the missing angle in the picture below.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

take x degree as reference angle

using cos rule

cos x=adjacent/hypotenuse

cos x=14.3/19

cos x=0.75

x=cos 41

x= 41 degree

Answer 2

Answer:

x =41.18114952

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

We know the hypotenuse and adjacent sides

cos theta = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos x  = 14.3/19

taking the inverse cos of each side

cos^-1 (cos x) = cos ^-1 ( 14.3/19)

x =41.18114952
