Since this is a right triangle, we can use one of the three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, or tangent.

Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA

Looking from the angle, we know the opposite side and the hypotenuse. Therefore, we should use the sine function.

sin(x) = 21/40

x = sin^-1(21/40)

x = 32 degrees

Hope this helps!
