Question 16

A support bracket consists of two triangles. Triangle $PQR\,$ is right-angled at $Q$ , with $P R = 26$ cm and $QR = 10$ cm. Side $PQ\,$ is shared with triangle $P QS$ .

In triangle $P QS$ , the angle at vertex $S\,$ is $45^\circ\,$ and the angle at vertex $P\,$ is $55∘55^\circ$ .

Work out the length of the side $P S$ , marked as $x$ , which is opposite the remaining angle in triangle $P QS$ . Give your answer to 1 decimal place.
