Answer:

α ≈ 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of a rectangle are right , that is 90°

Using the tangent ratio in right triangle ABC

tanα = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BC}{AB}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{3}[/tex] = 4, then

α = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] (4) ≈ 76° ( to the nearest degree )
