Answer

Final Answer: \(\theta = \boxed{30^{\circ}}\)

Steps

Step 1 :The arctan function is the inverse of the tangent function. It returns the angle whose tangent is the input. In this case, we need to find the angle whose tangent is \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\).

Step 2 :We know that \(\tan(30^{\circ}) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\). Therefore, \(\theta = 30^{\circ}\).

Step 3 :Final Answer: \(\theta = \boxed{30^{\circ}}\)
