Check the picture below.


tan(A)=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{55}}{\underset{adjacent}{48}}\implies A=tan^(-1)\left( \cfrac{55}{48} \right)\implies A\approx 48.9^o \\\\\\ tan(B)=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{48}}{\underset{adjacent}{55}}\implies B=tan^(-1)\left( \cfrac{48}{55} \right)\implies B\approx 41.1^o

Make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
