The angle of elevation from point C to point A is
32^(\circ)

Solution:

Given that we have to find the angle of elevation from point C to Point A

Given in figure that, angle A =
58^(\circ)

Given is a right angled triangle ABC where angle B =
90^(\circ)

We have to find angle C

The angle sum property of a triangle states that the angles of a triangle always add up to 180°

Therefore, in given triangle ABC

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180


58^(\circ) + 90^(\circ) + C = 180^(\circ)


148^(\circ) + C = 180^(\circ)\\\\C = 180^(\circ) - 148^(\circ)\\\\C = 32^(\circ)

Therefore angle C =
32^(\circ)
