    Mach angle for a flow is defined as \[\mu =sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{M} \right )\]
    \(\\\Rightarrow \mu =sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{2.0} \right )
    \\\Rightarrow \mu =sin^{-1}\left ( 0.5 \right )
    \\\Rightarrow \mu =30^{\circ}\)

    Therefore Mach angle for a flow at Mach 2 is 30 degrees.
