Pi/4 radians
You're looking for the angle that has a secant of sqrt(2). And since the secant is simply the reciprocal of the cosine, let's take a look at that.
sqrt(2) = 1/x
x*sqrt(2) = 1
x = 1/sqrt(2)
Let's multiply both numerator and denominator by sqrt(2), so
x = sqrt(2)/2
And the value sqrt(2)/2 should be immediately obvious to you as a trig identity. Namely, that's the cosine of a 45 degree angle. Now for the issue of how to actually give you your answer. There's no need for decimals to express 45 degrees, so that caveat in the question doesn't make any sense unless you're measuring angles in radians. So let's convert 45 degrees to radians. A full circle has 360 degrees, or 2*pi radians. So:
45 * (2*pi)/360 = 90*pi/360 = pi/4
So your answer is pi/4 radians.

Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of paint = 14 gallons
the paint was distributed equally among 4 classes
a. therefore each class would get gallons of paint
= gallons each
b.Three classes will use 3× paint of each class
= = 10(1/2) gallons
c. 4 student paint 30 square-foot wall the each student would paint
= 7(1/2) square-foot wall.
d. each student will paint of the wall since there are 4 students.
5x + 2 1/4 = 19 1/8
5x + 9/4 = 153/8
5x = 153/8 - 9/4
5x = 153/8 - 18/8
5x = 135/8
x = 135/8 * 1/5
x = 135/40 = 3 3/8 inches <==
