I believe there is a typo. My guess is that you are looking for an angle that it's cos is 1/4

In the text box that says arc is type .25 and you will get an angle around 75. If the link above doesn't open, you may go to google and type arc is and search for a site that allows you to type .25 and then search for the angle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The formulation has typos.
Let me reformulate (and solve) it as it should be. 

--------------------------------------------
   If   =   what is the value of  ?

   Assume that  is an angle in the first quadrant.
--------------------------------------------


Solution

If   =   then   =   =  =  =  =  = .

The sign  "+"  was chosen at the square root because the sine is positive for an angle at the first quadrant.
