I can't read the document you posted.

I expect you'll need to use the area of a triangle formula = 1/2absinC

a and b are the two equal length sides, because it's an isosceles triangle where base angles are equal the angle C between those sides is either 25 or its 180-2x25, I don't know if it's obvious from the actual question which it is.
