Answer:

27°

Explanation:

we have the 'opposite' as length 2 is opposite the angle θ

we have the adjacent (length 4) which is next to the angle θ

the hypotenuse is the longest side (we don't need)

Using SOHCAHTOA

we use TOA as O is opposite and A is adjacent

tanθ = opposite ÷ adjacent

tanθ = 2 ÷ 4

using the inverse sign to find θ

θ = tan⁻¹(2/4) = 27° (to the nearest whole degree)
