Answer:
26 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached image shows how I interpret this question, and I assume you're meant to use trigonometry to solve.
From the perspective of the angle, we have a relationship between the opposite side, the hypotenuse, and the angle. Because the 2 sides are the opposite and the hypotenuse, we need the sine function, and because the angle is the unknown, we need the inverse sine function.
(soh cah toa)
[tex]sin(x)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\sin^{-1}(\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse})=x[/tex]
Now, just plug in the 2 known values and solve for the unknown:
[tex]sin^{-1}(\frac{1.1}{2.5})=x\\\\sin^{-1}(0.44)=x\\\\x=26.1039[/tex]
The angle is 26 degrees, and you can check that by doing it in reverse:
[tex]sin(26.1039)=\frac{1.1}{2.5}\\\\sin(26.1039)=0.44\\\\0.44=0.44[/tex]
