259?

That is the correct angle. Basically, you want the arc secant of -5.2408 which is 101 degrees. Some calculators might show the second angle, if not the way to calculate the second arc secant angle is: 360° -101° = 259° Attached is a chart that shows how to calculate the second arc function angle.
