Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation.

First I would use sine to find x's value. So ----> sin(30) = 7/x ----> x sin(30) = 7 ----> x = 7/sin(30) = 14.

You Can also find that x is equal to 14 by applying the 30, 60, 90, triangle rule. Becuase '7' opposes the 30 degree angle it is 1/2 the hypotenuse, if thats the case just multiply the 7 by 2 and you have the hypotenuse length.
