Answer

$\theta = 29^{\circ}$

Work Step by Step

In part (c), we found that: The horizontal component $T_{3x} = 28~N$ The vertical component $T_{3y} = 50~N$ We can find $\theta$: $tan~\theta = \frac{T_{3x}}{T_{3y}}$ $\theta = tan^{-1}~\frac{T_{3x}}{T_{3y}}$ $\theta = tan^{-1}~\frac{28~N}{50~N}$ $\theta = 29^{\circ}$
