Answer

x° = 30.6°

Step-by-step explanation

In a right-angle triangle, the side opposite the right angle is the Hypotenuse, the side opposite the given angle that is non-right angle is the Opposite and the remaining side is the Adjacent.

For this question,

Hypotenuse = 36

Opp = ?

Adjacent = 31

Angle = x°

Using trignometric identities

Cos x° = (Adj/Hyp)

Cos x° = (31/36)

Cos x° = 0.8611

x° = Cos⁻¹ (0.8611)

x° = 30.6°

Hope this Helps!!!
