Answer:

16.6°

Explanation:

The triangle can be solved using the Law of Cosines to find the side opposite the given angle, then the Law of Sines to find the missing angle from the given sides.

__

We choose to use a=10, b=4, C=29°.

c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C) . . . . . law of cosines

c² = 10² +4² -2·10·4·cos(29°) ≈ 46.0304

c ≈ √46.0304 ≈ 6.78457

Then angle B (opposite side b) is ...

sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c . . . . . . . . . law of sines

sin(B)/4 = sin(29°)/6.78457

B = arcsin(4/6.78457×sin(29°)) ≈ 16.6085°

The missing acute angle is about 16.6°.
