Explanation / Answer

Given,

v = 3.8 m/s ; Vbp = 5.5 m/s

When we draw the triangle using the given velocity vectors we can implement trigonometry to get the angle.

the smallest angle will be given by:

theta = cos^-1(v/Vbp)

theta = cos^-1(3.8/5.5) = 46.3 deg

Hence, smallest angle = theta = 46.3 deg CCW the y axis.
