Given the information about the triangle, we can use the cosine function on angle x to get the following:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos x=\frac{\text{adjacent side}}{hypotenuse}=\frac{7}{16} \\ \Rightarrow\cos x=\frac{7}{16} \end{gathered}[/tex]

solving for x, we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos x=\frac{7}{16} \\ \Rightarrow x=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{7}{16})=64.1 \\ x=61.1\degree \end{gathered}[/tex]

therefore, the value of x is 61.1
