Solution:

Given cos A = 0.25.

we have been asked to find value of the angle A in degree.

As we know that if


cos \theta=k\\ \\ \text{Then we can write }\\ \\ \theta=cos^(-1)k\\ \\ \text{Thereafter we can find the value of theta using the calculator }

So using this concept we can write


A=cos^(-1)0.25\\ \\ A=75.5224\\ \\ A \approx 75.52\\

Hence the correct option is C.
