Answer:

34.8°

Explanation:

You want the angle opposite a side of length 8 cm in a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 cm.

Sine

The sine relation is the one of interest in this geometry:

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

sin(x°) = (8 cm)/(14 cm)

The angle can be found using the inverse sine function:

x° = arcsin(8/14) ≈ 34.8°

The size of the angle x° is 34.8°.
