Answer:

38°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle solver app on your calculator, phone, or tablet can solve this for you readily. There are on-line triangle solvers, too.

___

For solution "by hand", the Law of Cosines is useful. It tells you ...

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2ab·cos(A)

Then the angle A can be found as ...

cos(A) = (b^2 +c^2 -a^2)/(2ab) = (3^2 +7^2 -5^2)/(2·3·7) = 33/42 = 11/14

A = arccos(11/14) ≈ 38°

_____

In formulas like the Law of Cosines or the Law of Sines, the uppercase letters stand for the measures of angles, and the lowercase letters stand for their opposite side lengths.
