A vertical radio mast of height \(h\) metres stands on level ground. A hiker walks along a straight horizontal path directly towards the foot of the mast.
From the point \(P\), the angle of elevation of the top of the mast is \(22^\circ\). The hiker walks \(85\) metres further to the point \(Q\), where the angle of elevation of the top of the mast is \(51^\circ\). The foot of the mast is \(F\), and \(QF=x\) metres.
