Law of sines can be used to solve this problem:

(note - let x represent the missing side length.)

1. set up proportion.
sin 90°/25 = sin 55<span>°/x

2. solve.
(x) sin 90</span>° = (25) sin 55<span>°

(x) sin 90 </span>°/sin 90° = (25) sin 55° / sin 90<span>°
</span>
x = 20.4788011072
rounded to nearest tenth = 20.5

The solution for right triangles is to use the basic trigonometric function:
For this problem, the length of the hypotenuse is given and we are looking for the side opposite, thus we will use sin x.
where 
x= 55 degrees
h=25 m
sin x= side opposite/hypotenuse
sin55=sideopposite/25m
25msin55=side opposite
side opposite = 20.5 m

The figure shows triangle ABC with medians AF, BD, and CE. Segment AF is extended to H in such a way that segment GH is congruen
attashe74 [19]

Answer: Segment GD is parallel to segment HC.

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔAHC

AG=GH (given)...........1

As BD is the median of ΔABC bisecting AC at D

∴AD=DC.........2

⇒\frac{AD}{DC}=\frac{AG}{GH}=1(from 1 and 2)

⇒segment GD is dividing the sides AH and AC  in same ratio.

Therefore by the converse of Basic proportionality theorem,segment GD is parallel to segment HC.

Converse of basic probability theorem states that if a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side.
