Some interesting math.
arrow=script.Parent
arrow_center=arrow.AbsolutePosition+arrow.AbsoluteSize/2 --grab center position of the image
spot=UDim2.new(0, 76, 0, 72) --Best if offset is used in this case
new_spot=Vector2.new(spot.X.Offset-arrow_center.X, spot.Y.Offset-arrow_center.Y) --Make the arrow act like point 0
c=math.deg(math.atan2(new_spot.Y, new_spot.X))+0 --Add or remove according on which direction the arrow is facing in the original picture. If the arrow was originaly pointing to the right then you should be fine.
arrow.Rotation=c
