I need the angle of degrees on a triangle. I suspect it is a simple trigonometric function.

angle A is a right angle, what is the angle C in degrees. I suspect it is simple, but I seemed to have skipped over trig.-4 ft is the length of the adjacent side. 28 ft is the length of the opposite side.......
A triangle, A,B as the base is 28 feet, A,C to the apex is 4 feet, angle A is a right angle, what is the angle C in degrees. I suspect it is simple, but I seemed to have skipped over trig.

4 ft is the length of the adjacent side. 28 ft is the length of the opposite side.

tan(C) = (4 ft) / (28 ft) = 7 (because Soh Cah Toa)

Inverse trig functions eat lengths and poop angles, the reverse of normal. Therefore

tan^-1(7) = C = about 82 degrees
