Answer:

30.8 degrees

Explanation:

First, find the missing angles on the triangle to the right:

*arccosine(4.5/7) = 49.99

This is the angle between sides 7 and 4.5.

Next, using 49.99 as a reference angle, find the missing side:

tan(49.99) x 4.5 = 5.36

Next, we use arctan to find the missing angle:

*arctan(5.36/9) = 30.7761482323

Or 30.8 degrees.

*A fraction, not division ;-;
