From a centerpunched starting point on a sheet of steel, a horizontal line segment 30.20 centimeters long is scribed and the endpoint is centerpunched. From this centerpunched point, a vertical line segment 26.50 centimeters is scribed and the endpoint is centerpunched. A line segment is scribed between the starting point and the last centerpunched point. What is the measure of the acute angle opposite the 26.50-centimeter side rounded to the nearest hundredth degree?
