<h3>Answer: D) 55.7 degrees approximately</h3>
=====================================================
The reference angle has AC = 12.3 as the opposite side and BC = 8.4 as the adjacent side. The tangent ratio ties the opposite and adjacent sides together.
--------
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(theta) = AC/BC
tan(theta) = 12.3/8.4
theta = arctan(12.3/8.4)
theta = 55.6697828044967
theta = 55.7 degrees approximately
--------
arctan is the same as inverse tangent which is written as
make sure your calculator is in degree mode

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5y + 3 > - 7y + 13 ( add 7y to both sides )
12y + 3 > 13 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
12y > 10 ( divide both sides by 12 )
