Three samples of loose sand were tested under consolidated undrained (CU) conditions. The failure stresses and excess pore water pressure for the soil sample is given below: Cell Pressure = 243 kPa Deviator Stress = 127 kPa Pore Water Pressure = 82 kPa Determine the drained angle of inclination of failure plane in degrees. Round off to two decimal places.
