STEP 1: find angle $ \alpha $

To find angle $ \alpha $ use formula:

$$ \sin \left( \frac{ \alpha }{ 2 } \right) = \dfrac{ d_2 }{ d_1 } $$

After substituting $d_2 = 16\, \text{cm}$ and $d_1 = 26\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ \sin \left( \frac{ \alpha }{ 2 } \right) = \dfrac{ 16\, \text{cm} }{ 26\, \text{cm} } $$ $$ \sin \left( \frac{ \alpha }{ 2 } \right) = \frac{ 8 }{ 13 } $$ $$ \frac{ \alpha }{ 2 } = \arcsin\left( \frac{ 8 }{ 13 } \right) $$ $$ \frac{ \alpha }{ 2 } = 37.9799^o $$$$ \alpha = 37.9799^o \cdot 2 $$$$ \alpha = 75.9597^o $$

STEP 2: find angle $ \beta $

To find angle $ \beta $ use formula:

$$ \alpha + \beta = 90^o $$

After substituting $ \alpha = 75.9597^o $ we have:

$$ 75.9597^o + \beta = 90^o $$ $$ \beta = 90^o - 75.9597^o $$ $$ \beta = 14.0403^o $$
