You use the arithmetic sequence formula and input the information given to you.
tn = a + (n-1)d
t(56) is what your looking for so don't worry about the tn.
a is your first term,
a = 15.
n is the position of the term you are looking for, n = 56.
And d is the common difference, you find this by taking t2 and subtracting t1. t2=18 and t1=15.
d = 18 - 15 = 3
Inputting it all into the formula you get,
t(56) = 15 + (56-1)(3)
term 56 = 180.
You use this formula to find any term in a sequence provided you are given enough info. You can also manipulate it if you are asked to find something else like the first term(a), common difference(d) or term position(n). It just depends on what the question is asking and what information you are given. :)
Hope this helps!

Answer:
∠HGJ = 35°
Step-by-step explanation:
Although the question is somewhat incomplete, I have tried to reconstruct the question as much as possible to aid understanding (attached is the pictorial representation of the rhombus).
Firstly, it is important to note that rhombuses are parallelograms which have all sides equal and whose diagonals are perpendicular to each other. In addition to this, their diagonals bisect one other.
Mathematically, |EF| = |FG| = |GH| = |HE|
Another property which rhombuses have is that their opposite angles are equal.
Mathematically, ∠E = ∠G, ∠H = ∠F
The adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary. This means that the sum of angles closest to each other is 180°.
Mathematically, ∠E + ∠F = 180°, ∠F + ∠G = 180°, ∠G + ∠H = 180°,
∠H + ∠E = 180°
The question gave us ∠GHE and asked us to find ∠HGJ (denoted as θ in the picture attached). Note that ∠GHE means ∠H. That is, ∠GHE ⇒ ∠H
∠GHE or ∠H = 110°
From the properties of rhombuses (earlier stated), we know that adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary
Mathematically,
∠GHE + ∠FGH ⇒ 110° + ∠FGH = 180° ⇒ ∠FGH = 180° - 110°
∠FGH or ∠G = 70°
To calculate for ∠HGJ, we divide ∠FGH by 2, we have:
∠HGJ = ∠FGH ÷ 2 = 70° ÷ 2
∠HGJ = 35°
