For this case we can use the following trigonometric relationship:
tan (theta) = XY / YZ
Substituting values we have:
tan (theta) = 12.4 / 15.1
Clearing the angle we have:
theta = atan (12.4 / 15.1)
Theta = 39.39256804 degrees
Rounding:
Theta = 39.3 degrees
Answer:
the approximate measure of angle YZX is:
B. 39.4
