That question is different than this one...

Draw altitude \(CM\).

 

We know that \(\triangle ACM = 45-45-90\).

 

Thus, \(CM = AM = 4\).

 

In \(\triangle CBM\), we know that \(CB = 4\sqrt3\) and \(CM = 4\)

 

We can form the equation: \(\sin(B) = {\sqrt3 \over 3}\)

 

Taking the inverse, we find that \(\color{brown}\boxed {B \approx 35.264}\)

 

Here is the diagram:
