Answer:

53.06°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC, since ∠CAB is 90 degree, therefore consider AB to be the opposite and AC be the adjacent.

Now to find the angle, ∠ACB using trigonometry,

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

tan θ = AB / AC

given AC = 6 and AB = 8

tan θ = 8 / 6

tan θ = 1.33

therefore, θ = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] 1.33

                 θ = 53.06°

Therefore, the bearing from post C to post B is 53.06°
