The given information is the opposite and adjacent side of the angle we are finding.

The trigonometric function tangent is given by the formula:


\tan \beta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}

By replacing the given values, we can solve for B:


\begin{gathered} \tan \beta=(3)/(4) \\ \beta=\tan ^(-1)((3)/(4)) \\ \beta=36.87\degree \end{gathered}

The answer is 36.87°.
