Apply pseudo force on a particle of mass $m .$ Net force along the surface is zero.

$m a \cos \theta=m g \cos [90-(\theta-\alpha)]$

$\frac{a}{g} \cos \theta=g \sin (\theta-\alpha)$

$\frac{a}{g}=\frac{\sin \theta \cos \alpha}{\cos \theta}-\frac{\cos \theta \sin \alpha}{\cos \theta}$

$\tan \theta=\frac{\frac{a}{g}+\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha}=\frac{a+g \sin \alpha}{g \cos \alpha}$
