Answer:

x = 26.4

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of x

To get this, we are to use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

From the question, we have the opposite and the adjacent

The trigonometric ratio to use in this case is the tangent

Mathematically;

Tan 53 = 35/x

x = 35/tan 53

x = 26.37

which is 26.4
