In an equilateral triangle, all angles are equal and each angle measures $$ 60^\circ $$.

We are given that one angle is represented by the expression $$ 15x - 33 $$. To find the value of $$ x $$, we can set up the equation:

$$
15x - 33 = 60
$$

Now, we will solve for $$ x $$:

1. Add 33 to both sides:

$$
15x = 60 + 33
$$
$$
15x = 93
$$

2. Divide both sides by 15:

$$
x = \frac{93}{15}
$$

3. Calculate the division:

$$
x = 6.2
$$

Thus, the value of $$ x $$ is $$ \boxed{6.20} $$.
The value of $$ x $$ is 6.20.
