Answer:

Angle Tº = 16.26020471

Rounded up = 16.3 º (16º)

Explanation:

I used trigonometry to calculate angle Tº. I labelled the sides of the triangle as the Opposite, Adjacent and Hypotenuse.

Opposite = 7

Adjacent = 24

Hypotenuse = 25

Because all the sides have been showed you could use any formula of trigonometry to find the angle ( sin, cos or tan)

I used Cos. (I'm gonna describe angle t as 'xº' as i don't have the feta symbol)

Cos() = Adjacent ÷ Hypotenuse

= Cos¯¹ (24÷25)

= 16.3º
