Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate the Angle in Radians

Given the opposite side length \( 3 \) and the adjacent side length \( 4 \), we can find the angle \( \theta \) using the tangent function: \[ \tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{3}{4} \] To find the angle \( \theta \), we use the arctangent function: \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right) \approx 0.6435 \text{ radians} \]

Step 2: Convert the Angle to Degrees

To convert the angle from radians to degrees, we use the conversion factor \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \[ \theta_{\text{degrees}} = 0.6435 \times \frac{180}{\pi} \approx 36.87 \text{ degrees} \]

Final Answer

The missing angle measure is approximately \( \boxed{36.87^\circ} \).
