Answer:

83.333 degress

Also where i solved for side a is pointless i just realised :p

Step-by-step explanation:

okay Imma head into some trig stuff here so sorry.

the hypotenuse of the triangle would be 60m

the height is 50m

Using pythag theorem we can concur that a = 10.488

a = 10.488

b= 50m

c = 60m

now we just use sin (feta) = 50/60

sin(feta) = .8333

or 83.3 degress.
