Find the angle between the diagonal of a cube of side length 18 and the diagonal of one of its faces, so that the two diagonals have a common vertex. the angle should be measured in radians. (hint: we may assume that the cube is in the first octant, the origin is one of its vertices, and both diagonals start at the origin.)

Length of the diagonal of one of its faces = sqrt ( 2* 18^2) = 25.46

Required angle = arctan 18 / 25.46 = 0.6154 radians
