Let n represent the number.
-13×(n -60) = n +(-59)
-13n +780 = n -59
839 = 14n
839/14 = n = 59 13/14
The number is 59 13/14.
_____
Check
The difference between the number and 60 is
59 13/14 -60 = -1/14
-13 times that value is
-13*(-1/14) = 13/14
Compare that to the number plus -59
59 13/14 -59 = 13/14 . . . . . the same value, as required.
The equivalent to that is 8.

The measure of angle theta is 30 degrees.
This is a 30-60-90 triangle where the short leg is half that of the hypotenuse. The short leg is opposite the smallest angle 30 degrees.
You can use trig to find that
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(theta) = 5/10
sin(theta) = 0.5
theta = arcsin(0.5)
theta = 30 degrees
