How do I calculate the static coefficient of friction using the equation tanč = µ when I only have the mass and angle?

that was suppose to be a tan theta thing but it came out as a funky e. just to clear that up so u not confuzzled
You just said how
\mu = tan(\theta)
\mu is the coefficient of friction. \theta is the MAXIMUM angle an object can be on a slope without slipping.
I could prove it for you but I really do not want to do that right now.

thanks that reeaaallllyyyyy helps <--- sarcasm
Just curious, but why did you ask how to do it then post how to do it?
