Your School SUBJECT is probably MATH.
Answered by Steve
sin(θ+36) = cosθ
sinθ cos36 + cosθ sin36 = cosθ
sinθ cos36 = cosθ(1-sin36)

That's exact, but you can approximate
sin 36 = 0.6
cos 36 = 0.8

You can change sin to cos bu squaring and remembering that sin^2 + cos^2 = 1

or, you can proceed by noting that you have

tanθ = (1-sin36)/cos36 = 0.509
