Answer:

The answer is option 2.

Explanation:

You have to use Cosine Rule, cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse. Substitute the following value into the formula :


\cos(θ) = (adj.)/(hypo.)

Let θ = T,

Let adj = 7.5,

Let hypo = 19.5,


\cos(T) = (7.5)/(19.5)


T = { \cos( (7.5)/(19.5) ) }^( - 1)


T = 67° \: \: (near. \: degree)

Find the measure of angle T to the nearest degree.-example-1
