Answer:
draw the line using a ruler on which you have identified points 2 7/16 inches apart
Step-by-step explanation:
On your ruler graduated in inches with marks at 1/16-inch intervals, locate the 0 mark and the mark 1/16 inch before the half-inch mark between 2 and 3 inches.
Draw your line along the edge of the ruler between the two marks you have identified: 0 and 2 7/16. The line will be 2 7/16 inches long.

Hi there!
To solve, we can use right triangle trig.
We are given the value of ∠A, and side "x" is its adjacent side. We are also given its opposite side, so:
tan (A) = O / A
tan (33) = 25 / x
Solve:
x · tan(33) = 25
x = 38.49 ≈ 38.5
