    Using the law of sines, SinA/a = SinB/b = SinC/c

    guessing the triangle has a 90 degree angle J for the hyp. of 6 and another leg of 2, we set up the problem like this ...

    Sin90/6 = SinX/2 (multiply by 2)

    2 [ Sin90/6 ] = Sinx

    .333333333 = Sinx (to change to degrees, use the Sin^-1 (.3333333333)

    to get the approximate degrees of 19.47 degrees or 19.5 degrees.
