Answer:

x = 24.1

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle θ = 15°

Adjacent = 90

Opposite = x =?

The value of x can be obtained by using Tan ratio as shown below:

Tan θ = Opposite / Adjacent

Tan 15 = x / 90

Cross multiply

x = 90 × Tan 15

x = 24.1

Therefore, the value of x is 24.1
