Answer:

It is 45 degree angle

Explanation:

AB is the tilted angle of the triangle

BC is the height and the vertical part of the triangle

If AB is 10 then BC is 5 and AC is possibly about 6-8

If that is so then 2 right triangles is a square

A square has 90 degree angles on any angle

Divide 90 by 2 which is 45 because a right triangle is half of a square

Therefore angle ABC is 45 degrees
