Answer:

x = 15.01

Explanation:

Given degrees 25

Since x is between the right angle and 25, x is adjacent

7 being the other shortest side would be the opposite

Given adjacent and opposite, you can use tangent

Tangent = opposite/adjacent

Tan(25) = 7/x

0.4663076582 = 7/x

x = 7/0.4663076582 (use calculator)

Solution: x = 15.0115484421

Answer:

15.0

Explanation:

we are finidng the adjacent angle, they have given us the opposite and the missing adjacent side so we use tan

tan25=7/x

since x is at the bottom then switch

x= 7/tan25

x= 15. 012
