    According to the Pythagorean Theorem,

    hypotenuse^2 = leg^2 + leg^2

    25^2 = 15^2 + leg^2

    625 - 225 = leg^2

    leg = 20

    Since there is NO diagram, I am guessing at what angle ACB is.

    sine (ACB) = 20 / 25 =.8

    arc sine (.8) = 53.13 degrees

    In case it should be the other angle, then it is

    36.87 degrees
