Answer:

The answer to your question is: Ф = 43.95°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length = 18 ft

distance bottom to is 13 ft

x = angle = ?

Formula

cos Ф = opposite side / hypotenuse  

Process

cos Ф = 13 ft / 18 ft                   substitution

cos Ф = 0.72                            simplify

Ф = cos⁻¹ (0.72)

Ф = 43.95°                                result
