Answer:

[tex]cos(D)=0.51[/tex]

[tex]m\angle D=59.49^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle DEF

[tex]cos(D)=\frac{DF}{ED}[/tex] ---> by CAH (adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse)

substitute the given values

[tex]cos(D)=\frac{33}{65}=0.51[/tex]

using a calculator

[tex]m\angle D=cos^{-1}(\frac{33}{65})=59.49^o[/tex]
