Answer:

x=7.6

Explanation:

In order to find adjacent when angle and opposite side is given, we can use Tangent rule, which is:

$\boxed{\bold{Tangent\: angle = (Opposite)/(adjacent)}}$

For Question

By substituting value in above formula or rule:

Tangent 63°=
(15)/(x)

0.16974975208=
(15)/(x)

Doing criss cross multiplication

x=
(15)/(Tan 63)

x=7.6428817424164

x=7.6 units
