Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

Angle θ

Opposite Leg = 31

Adjacent Leg = 42

Step 2: Find Angle

  1. Substitute in variables [tangent]:                                                                    [tex]\displaystyle tan(\theta) = \frac{31}{42}[/tex]
  2. Inverse Trig:                                                                                                      [tex]\displaystyle \theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{31}{42})[/tex]
  3. Evaluate:                                                                                                           [tex]\displaystyle \theta = 36.4309[/tex]
  4. Round:                                                                                                               [tex]\displaystyle \theta \approx 36.4[/tex]
