Use the image to answer the question.

A right triangle upper A upper B upper C. The right angle, labeled upper C, is on the bottom left. The hypotenuse, side upper A upper B, slopes downward from right to left. All sides are assigned values.

Use the inverse of tangent to find the approximate measure of angle A
, rounded to the nearest whole degree.

I don’t have the image available — could you either upload it here or tell me the side lengths shown?

To solve once you have the numbers: for angle A in right triangle ABC (right angle at C),
- the side opposite A is BC,
- the side adjacent to A is AC,
so angle A = arctan(opposite/adjacent) = arctan(BC/AC).
Compute that with a calculator and round to the nearest degree.

Example: if BC = 3 and AC = 4, A = arctan(3/4) ≈ 36.87° → 37°.
