Answer:

x° = 29°

Explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relevant trig relationships. Here, you have the hypotenuse and the side opposite the unknown angle. So, the appropriate relation is ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

sin(x°) = 12/25

x° = arcsin(12/25) ≈ 28.69°

The value of x is about 29.
