Let the cube have side length x. (I assume it is a cube)
The image above is a cross-section of the plane containing the diagonals.
It is a rectangle with sides x and 2 x .
By Pythagorean Theorem, the half-diagonal has length 2 3 x .
By cosine rule, ( 2 x ) 2 = 2 ( 2 3 x ) 2 ( 1 − cos @ ) 2 x 2 = 2 3 x 2 ( 1 − \cos@ ) 3 4 = 1 − \cos@ @ = arccos ( − 3 1 )
This is approximately equal to 1 0 9 degrees and 2 8 minutes. The final answer is A + B = 1 0 9 + 2 8 = 1 3 7
