First, split the triangle into half.
So the angle 38 becomes 38/2=19.
So we know two angles in the triangle:
One is 19 degrees.
The other one is 90 degrees (marked red).
The angles in a right-angled triangle add up to 180 degrees.
So to find the x angle, we calculate it by:
180 - (90+19) = 71
(the sum of three angles) - (the sum of the two known angles) = unknown angle
So x = 71 degrees.

Answer:
1.6m
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the blade is 3.2m
The angle which the blade makes is 30°
Assuming the path of the blade and the length it covers is a right-angled triangle,
The length of the blade is the hypothenus while the path at which it clears is the opposite of the triangle.
See attached document for better illustration.
Using SOHCAHTOA,
Sinθ = opposite / hypothenus
opposite = x
hypothenus = 3.2
θ = 30°
Sin30 = x / 3.2
X = 3.2sin30
X = 3.2 × 0.5
X = 1.6m
The path which the snow plough clears is 1.6m
