Answer: Angle A to the nearest degree = 50°

Explanation:

Given the triangle ABC:

Since triangle ABC is a right angle triangle, Pythagoras rule can be used to obtain the value of it's angles.

cosine of A

Using Pythagoras rule :

Cos A = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Cos A = 267 / 391

Cos A = 0.6828644

Taking the cos inverse of angle A

A = Cos^-1 (0.6828644)

A = 46.932111°

A = 50°
