Answer:


\boxed{43.8 \°}

Explanation:

Use tangent since hypotenuse length is not given.


tan \theta = (opposite)/(adjacent)


tan(x)=(48)/(50)


x=tan^(-1)((48)/(50) )


x=43.8

Answer:


\boxed{\mathrm{x = 43.8 \ degrees}}

Explanation:

Let the angle be x

Tan x =
(opposite)/(adjacent)

Where opposite = 48, Adjacent = 50

Tan x =
(48)/(50)

Tan x = 0.96

x =
Tan ^(-1)0.96

x = 43.8 degrees
