Answer: 51.1

Explanation:

In the given picture , we have a right triangle Δ DEF right-angled at ∠F i.e. ∠ F= 90°.

Hypotenuse = DE = 9 units (Side opposite to right angle is hypotenuse)


\angle{E}=\theta

and FD = 7 units

According to the trigonometry in a right triangle ,


\sin x=\frac{\text{Side opposite to x}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

In Δ DEF

So ,
\sin\theta=(FD)/(DE)

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{7}{9}\\\\ theta =\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{7}{9})\\\\=51.05755873\approx 51.1\ \ [\text{By using sin calculator.}]/tex]

Hence, the approximate value of θ is 51.1.

So the correct answer is "51.1".
