Magnifying Glass
Problem of the Week - October 23, 2023
Sir Issac Newton was examining an angle formed by two segments joined on a piece of paper. After using a protractor, he determined the measure (in degrees) of the angle to be one-fifth of the square root of forty-three less than the year he was born. Sir Issac Newton uses his magnifying glass that magnifies everything three and one-half times the original size to view this angle. What is the angle measure (in degrees) while viewing it under the magnifying glass?
