Answer: B

Explanation:

To find angle C, you want to look at 14 and 16. From angle C, we have
tanC=(opposite)/(adjacent). This tells us to use tangent. We use the values to fill into tangent.


tanC=(14)/(16)

In order to find the value of C, we have to find inverse tangent.


tan^-^1((14)/(16) )=C


C=41.2=41
