A penalty kick is taken from a corner of the penalty area at position A (see the figure below). The goalkeeper stands 6 feet from the goalpost nearest the shooter and can thus block a shot anywhere between the middle of the goal and the nearest goalpost (segment CD). To score, the shooter must kick the ball within the angle CAE. Find the measure of this angle to the nearest tenth of a degree. Assume a = 56 feet and b = 54 feet.
