I would draw a horizontal line through A, which would form two right triangles with hypotenuses AB and AC. Find the angle at A for each triangle, and add them to get angle CAB.

Next time you might want to translate the entire question; I'm assuming it is obvious what the numbers refer to, but I like to be sure.
 


Ok, so consider the side which point A is on it. Draw 2 lines perpendicular from C and B to this side (which is of course parallel to the other side since this is a rectangle)
So you end up with 2 new triangles
Can you calculate all their angles using cosin and sin ? 2 of these angles (the sum of them) will help you find the angle you want
