Answer:

  25.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the trig relations in a right triangle.

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  cos(x) = (9 cm)/(10 cm) = 0.9

Using the inverse cosine function, we can find the angle given its cosine.

  x = arccos(0.9) ≈ 25.8°

Angle x is about 25.8°.
