Let the radius of the circle in which the bob is rotating is, the tension in the string is T, weight of the bob mg, and inclination of the string `theta`. Then T cos `theta` balances the weight mg and T sin `theta` provides the centripetal force necessary for circular motion.
That is -
T cos `theta` = mg
and T sin `theta = m omega^(2)` x
but x = l sin `theta`
`therefore " " T = m omega^(2)` l
and cos `theta = (mg)/(T) =(mg)/(m omega^(2))` l
or ` theta = cos^(-1) ((g)/(omega^(2) l))`
