Answer:

64.62°

Explanation:

Use good 'ol SOHCAHTOA. Since we know the hypotenuse and the adjacent values, we use cosine.

Therefore:


cos( ?) = (3)/(7)

Take the inverse cosine of each side:


{cos}^( - 1) (cos( ?)) = {cos}^( - 1) ( (3)/(7) )

Inverse cosine of cosine cancel each other out:


? = {cos}^( - 1) ( (3)/(7) )

Use a calculator:


? = 64.623

Therefore the angle is 64.62°
