Given
hypotenuse is 36
base is 24
Procedure
Cos function (or cosine function) in a triangle is the ratio of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse. The cosine function is one of the three main primary trigonometric functions and it is itself the complement of sine(co+sine).

The answer would be 48 degrees
As given the formula of range is

now for the maximum range


now for half of this maximum range we will have


now from above we have

so two possible values for above is given as

so above two angle we will have half of maximum range
Answer: A
Hope this help you!!
