Given both the distance from the tree and the height of the tree, the angle of elevation can be obtained using the tangent formula, tangent theta = opposite side / adjacent side. In this case, opposite side = the tree's height and the adjacent side is the distance of Cisco to the tree. Therefore, the angle of elevation equals 40.03 degrees.
