Answer:

36.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by drawing a right triangle and doing trigonometry. We can draw our triangle with a height of 51 and a base of 68. In order to find the angle from the ground to the sun we can use arctangent (tan^-1). Since tan(angle)=opposite/adjacent we can find the angle by doing angle=tan^-1(51/68)
