#- 281^@54; - 438^@36#

Explanation:

cos x = 0.2
Calculator and unit circle give -->
#x = +- 78^@46#
In the interval (-90, - 360), the answer is
#x = - 360 + 78.46 = - 281^@54# (co-terminal to #78^@46#)
In the interval (-360, - 450), the answer is :
#x = - 360 - 78.46 = - 438^@46#.
We get the final answer by adding (- 360) + (- 78.46) = - 438.36.
