The numbers are:  "7 " and "21 " .
_______________________________________
Explanation:
_______________________________________
The numbers are:  "x"  and "x + 14" .

x + (x + 14) = 28 .  Solve for "x" ; and then solve for "x + 14" .
_______________________________________
 → x + (x + 14) = 28 ;

Rewrite as:

 →  x + x + 14 = 28 ;

 →  1x + 1x + 14 = 28 ;

 →  2x + 14 = 28 ; 
  
 Subtract "14" from each side of the equation;
 
 →  2x + 14 − 14 = 28 <span>− 14 ;

</span> →  2x = 14  ;

Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "2" ;
     to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

 →  2x / 2 = 14 / 2 ;

 →  x = 7 . 
_________________________________________
So;  one of the numbers is:  " 7 " .

The other number is:  " x + 14 " ; which equals: " 7 + 14 = 21".

The other number is:  "21 " .
_________________________________________
The numbers are:  "7 " and "21 " .

Answer: x = 13.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 90 degrees and 33 degrees to get angle X, which is 57 degrees.

2. Using Laws of Sine, plug in the known elements of the triangle:

(16) / (sin(90)) = (x) / (sin(57))

3. Cross multiply, this will leave 16sin(57) = xsin(90)

4. Divide sin(90) to the other side, leaving x = (16sin(57)) / (sin(90))

5. Plug this into a calculator and your final answer should be 13.4
