#theta=23.58^@" or "theta=156.42^@#

Explanation:

#"given "sintheta=0.40#

#"since "sintheta>0#

#"then "theta" is in first/second quadrants"#

#rArrtheta=sin^-1(0.40)=23.58^@" to 2 dec. places"#

#"or "theta=(180-23.58)^2=156.42^@#

#t = 23^@58, and t = 156^@42#

Explanation:

sin t = 0.40
Calculator gives --> #t = 23^@58#
Trig unit circle gives another t that has the same sin value (0.4)
#t = 180 - 23.58 = 156^@42#
