Hey there :)

We need to use trigonometry here
Given is the angle   = 30°
And one side           = 26
With a missing side =  x

The missing side is the opposite of the given angle, we have the adjacent but we don't know the value of the hypotenuse, so we need to use Tangent

Tan α = [tex] \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]
tan 30 = [tex] \frac{x}{26} [/tex]
26tan(30) = x
x = 15
[tex]\text {tan} (x) = \dfrac{\text{opposite}}{\text {adjacent}} [/tex]

[tex]\text {tan} (30) = \dfrac{\text{x}}{\text {26}} [/tex]

[tex]x = 26 \times \text {tan} (30)[/tex]

[tex]x = 15.01 \text { units}[/tex]
