The Solution:

Given:

We are required to find the measure of angle H.

By applying the trigonometric ratio, we have that:


\begin{gathered} \tan\angle H=(opposite)/(adjacent) \\ \\ \tan\angle H=(8)/(4) \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \tan\angle H=2 \\ \text{ Take the arctan of 2} \end{gathered}
\angle H=\tan^(-1)(2)=63.4349\approx63.4^o

Therefore, the correct answer is 63.4 degrees.
