how do you solve for theda in the equation sin2theda=((2)(9.8))/(7.6^2).

i have figured the right side of the equation to be .339 and so I am left with sin2theda on the left and i don't know how to get theda by itself.

Take the arcsin of the right side, then divide by 2.

sin2theda

Do you mean [itex]\sin^2 \theta[/itex] (square of the sine of theta) or [itex]\sin (2\theta)[/itex] (sine of (two times theta))?
