I Need Help With This Practice Problem Struggling It Is Trigonometry class=

Sagot :

Let's start by drawing this right triangle

The larger acute angle is the one opposite to the largerst leg

We can calculate this angle, using the following

[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{2\sqrt[]{6}}{2\sqrt[]{15}}[/tex]

Now, we just need to apply the inverse property

[tex]\theta=\arccos \mleft(\frac{\sqrt[]{6}}{\sqrt[]{15}}\mright)[/tex]

If we compute this, we obtain

Θ = 50.8°
