Detailed Solution

Angle between two plane faces is equal to the angle between the normals n1 and n2 to the planes. n1,the normal to the face OAB is given by 

OA×OB=i    j    k1    2    12    1    3=5ij3k    ...(i)

n2,the normal to the face ABC, is given by AB×AC.

n2=ijk112211=i5j3k      ...(ii)

If θ be the angle between n1 and n2

Then cosθ=n1n2n1n2=5.1+5+93535

cosθ=1935θ=cos11935.
