The triangle is right angles triangle,

So we can use sin theta here as,


sin R = (Perpendicular)/(Hypotenuse)

We are given from figure,

Perpendicular = 5cm and hypotenuse =13cm

Plugging these in the formula,


sin R = (5)/(13)

sin R =0.3846

Now here we take sin inverse to get the value of angle R,

R = 22.6189 degrees.

Answer: Angle R is 22.6189 degrees.
