 How to find the missing angle.

To find the missing angle we follow the following steps

1. Step 1 The two sides we know are Opposite (300) and Adjacent (400).
2. Step 2 SOHCAHTOA tells us we must use Tangent.
3. Step 3 Calculate Opposite/Adjacent = 300/400 = 0.75.
4. Step 4 Find the angle from your calculator using tan-1
