To answer this question, you first need to know what SohCahToa is.

S- opposite over hypotenuse

C- adjacent over hypotenuse

T- opposite over adjacent

In this situation, they have made it easier for you as they have given you the quotient of the opposite and adjacent sides (3.4) . Now in order to find an angle, you take the inverse of your expression. So instead of just Tan, you would plug in Tan^-1. So plug it in:

Tan^-1 (3.4)

Answer is 73.6 degrees.
