Answer:


tan 56 = (26)/(x)

Explanation:


tangent = (opposite)/(adjacent)

Side z is the hypotenuse, since it is opposite the right angle.

Side x is the adjacent, since it is next to the angle you are solving for.

The side measuring 26 is the opposite, since it is opposite the angle you are solving for.
