Unless I misread the post, tangent is not the correct function, but cosine is. I believe the correct formula is Cosine of 52=B/C This makes the cosine of 52=100/C which come out to 162.42

lockhaven said:use the Pythagorean formula A2 + B2 =C2
so the formula you want is A squared = C squared - B squared you only need 2 parts of a right triangle to solve....
Just curious, how does one compute the 52 degree angle out in the field? A big protractor or something?
