The pair of triangle shown in the diagram are similar. Similar triangle have proportional corresponding sides. So you can write a proportion connecting all given known and unknown sides:

\dfrac{23}{40}=\dfrac{x}{17}.

From here you have that

40\cdot x=23\cdot 17,\\ \\x=\dfrac{23\cdot 17}{40}=\dfrac{391}{40}=9.775\approx 9.8\ cm.

Answer: 9.8 cm.
