To solve this problem, we will need to use trigonometry.

Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA

Looking from the angle, we know the opposite side and want to find the adjacent side. Therefore, we should use the tangent function.

tan(15) = 5 / x

x * tan(15) = 5

x = 5 / tan(15)

x = 18.7 units

Hope this helps!! :)
