**Problem Statement:**

What is the total angle of twist in radians for the following metal shaft? Answer to 4 decimal places [0.0000]. 

**Given:**
- Torque (T) = 1,544 lb-in
- Length (L) = 1 ft
- Shear Modulus (G) = 9,290 ksi
- Polar Moment of Inertia (J) = 0.10 in^4

**Solution:**

To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for the angle of twist (\(\theta\)) in a shaft:

\[
\theta = \frac{{T \cdot L}}{{G \cdot J}}
\]

Convert all units to the same system before calculating. Specifically, ensure that the length (L) is in inches because the polar moment of inertia (J) is given in inches to the fourth power:

Since \(1 \text{ ft} = 12 \text{ in}\),

\[
\theta = \frac{{1,544 \text{ lb-in} \times 12 \text{ in}}}{{9,290,000 \text{ psi} \times 0.10 \text{ in}^4}}
\]

Calculate \(\theta\) and round the result to four decimal places.
