64 degrees. The cosine = adj/hyp Find the cosine number and then use the cosine value to find the angle.
Explanation:
cosine = adj/hyp
cosine =
cosine = 0.42857
Use the inverse cosine on the calculator or a table of cosines to find the angle that corresponds to the value of the cosine.
inverse cosine of 0.42857 = 64.6 degrees
