Answer:

37°

Explanation:

for this question you have to use the tan ratio since the opposite of that angle has been given as 3 and the adjacent has also been given which is 4..I will represent the unknown angle using x so,

tan x=opposite/adjacent

tanx=3/4

tanx=0.75

x=tan inverse of 0.75

x=36.9 or 37°

I hope this helps
