Answer:

θ ≈ 50.0°

Explanation:

You want the measure of angle A in right triangle ABC with AC = 10, BC = 11.9, and C = 90°.

Tangent

The tangent relation is ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

tan(θ) = BC/AC

tan(θ) = 11.9/10

θ = arctan(11.9/10) ≈ 50.0°

The measure of the angle marked θ is about 50.0°.
