Question

I had this question wrong in my homework, I don't understand the anti clockwise part I just worked the angle using inverse tan.

The angle (in degrees), measured anticlockwise from the i direction, of the resultant of the forces F, =-34.6i+7.7j kN and F2 =2.6 i +34.8 j kN
presented in Cartesian vector form (i acts left to right, j acts vertically upward), is given by:
-53
