Solve for the angle denoted by the "?". Round to the nearest tenth.

====================================================

Explanation:

Let x be the reference angle where the question mark is located.

Opposite this angle x is 27. The adjacent side is 38.

Use the tangent ratio to tie the two sides together

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(x) = 27/38

x = arctan(27/38)

x = 35.3947958 .... which is approximate

x = 35.4

Be sure that your calculator is in degree mode. The notation "arctan" refers to "arctangent" which is the same as inverse tangent. Your calculator should have a button labeled to help compute this.
