<PRE><B>Question 1078444</B>
Determine the acute angle at which y = 2x - 1 and y = 0.5x + 2 intersect. 
------
The two lines and the x-axis form a triangle.
Find the appropriate angles at the axis.
angle:: arctan(1/2) = 26.57 degrees 
angle2:: 180-arctan(2) = 116.5 degrees
------
Ans:: 180-[116.5+26.57] = 36.93 degrees
