Answer:

40 degrees

Explanation:

A triangle solver tool can find the angle easily. It is 39.8°, which rounds to 40°. Apps are available on some calculators, on the Internet, and for iOS and Android phones and tablets.

___

You may be expected to solve this using the Law of Cosines. If we name the sides ...

  • a = 1.75
  • b = 3.00
  • c = 2.00

the law of cosines tells us the relationship is ...

c² = a² + b² -2ab·cos(θ)

Then the angle is ...

θ = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab)) = arccos((3.0625 +9 -4)/(2·1.75·3))

= arccos(8.0625/10.5) ≈ 39.838° ≈ 40°
