    18.2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    JK is the side perpendicular to the horizontal (JL) thus it is opposite to angle 55°. JL is the adjacent, therefore, we can use the trigonometric ratio Tangent to fins the adjacent.

    Tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent

    Adjacent = opposite/Tan ∅

    Adjacent = 26 / Tan 55°

    =18.2
