Answer:
D. 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is a right triangle we can use sin, cos, tan.
Use cosine because the values of the adjacent side and hypotenuse are already given.
cos(θ) = 72/87
Because we are solving for the angle measure (and not the measure of the side) we need to use inverse cos.
cos⁻¹ = 72/87
put into a calculator and answer is approximatelyn34 degrees.
