use the given information to determine which trigonometric function should be used to find (theta) asking to write an equation to solve for the missing angle. DO NOT SOLVE.

The image shows a right-angled triangle labeled with side lengths and an angle. The hypotenuse is not provided.

- The perpendicular side is labeled as 2.5 cm.
- The base is labeled as 5 cm.
- The angle opposite the perpendicular side is marked as \( \theta \).
- The triangle is designated with the letter "a" in the top-left corner.

This setup can be used to explore trigonometric relationships such as sine, cosine, and tangent in a right triangle.
