 let D be distance between the  two points (arc length in red).  Radius of latitude 65°E be r.      r = Rcos 65°    D=±r△𝛗        =±r(X°E−25°E)(π/(180))  ⇒   X=25°E±((180×7)/(22))((D/r))   =25°E±((180×7)/(22))(((2502.5km)/(6370km×cos 65°)))         X=(25±53.24)°E             =78.24°E  or −28.24°E  ⇒   X=78.24°E  or  28.24°W .
