Step-by-step explanation:
tan30° = Height of person / (Distance away from river bank + river's width) = 1/√3.
Therefore 1.6m / (2m + x) = 1/√3
By cross multiplication, 1.6√3 = 2 + x.
Hence, x ≈ 0.77m.

The law of cosines for this particular situation is b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac cosB.
Filling in what you know, you have b^2 = 25 + 49 - [2(5)(7)-.1908], which simplifies to b^2 = 74 - 69.8092 which gives you a b^2 value of 4.1908, but you have to take the square root of that so you get a side value for b of 2.05.
