I see a straightforward right-angled triangle TCB
where C is 90°, CT=36 and CB = 53

using the tangent ratios angle T = 55.8°

I will leave it up to you to find the angle using whatever format your course or text book uses.
I would call it a bearing of 124.2°
idk ayy soz not soz bro
124 degrees
@Tony
how did you get the answer of the bearing which is 124 deg. ?
