From the given figure

There is a right triangle

Its hypotenuse = 39

The side adjacent to the missing angle = 35

Since we have adjacent side, and hypotenuse, then we will use cos x


\cos x=(35)/(39)

Use the inverse of cos to find x


x=\cos ^(-1)((35)/(39))

Use the calculator to find x

x = 26.17695217

Round it to the whole number

x = 26 degrees

The measure of the missing angle is 26 degrees
