In that right triangle, the side BC is adjacent to ∠C and the hypotenuse is side AC.

If you know the adjacent and the hypotenuse, use the cosine:  cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse.

cos(C)  =  22 / 60     --->     cos(C)  =  0.36667

Find the invcos of both sides     --->   C  =  invcos(0.366667)  =  68.5°.
