Here you would need to use trigonometry.
Remember SOHCAHTOA
You need to find the hypotenuse, and you are given the opposite side to the given angle. Which means you will be solving Sine.
Now just plug the numbers in.

Sin 67 = (15)/(x) \\Sin 67 (x) = 15 \\(sin67(x))/(sin 67) = (15)/(sin67) \\x = 16.2954
