Answer:

57.6159 round if needed

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the length of the triangle which is 298. We know the base of the triangle which is 189.

We need to find angle of elevation so we must use tangent function.

[tex] \tan(x) = \frac{298}{189} [/tex]

Use inverse tan function

[tex] \tan {}^{ - 1} ( \frac{298}{189} ) = 57.6159[/tex]

Round if needed.
