In this scenario, we are considering if-then statements. Looking at the given statement,

p = angle A is an obtuse angle

q = the measure of angle A = 75 degrees

A statement of if q, then p would be

q - p

where - is an arrow pointing to the right

Looking at the picture, the symbol before p represents negation. It tells us that

if q, then not p. By translation, the correct answer would be

If the measure of angle A = 75 degrees, then angle A is not an obtuse angle
