Answer:

Value of x = 7.0 units.

Explanation:

Given the trigonometric equation

$\tan \left(25^(\circ )\right)=(x)/(15)$

Switch sides

$(x)/(15)=\tan \left(25^(\circ \:)\right)$

Multiply both sides by 15

$(15x)/(15)=15\tan \left(25^(\circ \:)\right)$

Simplify

$x=15\tan \left(25^(\circ \:)\right)$

∵ tan (25) = 0.46630

Thus,

x = 7.0 (rounded to nearest tenth)

Therefore, value of x = 7.0 units.
