one practice problem is attached. Can someone solve it and explain why the angle is not given here ? Is the readings are from the standard method? The solution will be posted if someone needs.

Personally, I wish the structural guys would start designing their boiler steel to look like a ****. We wouldn't have all these NCR's for mislocation and anchor bolt deviations if they did, because our survey guys would actually get it right.
