M1 Hard Forces Question

Hi all, I have been pounding at this question for hours but to no avail.

Could somebody please guide me through the process of what to do, post a full worked solution if you like.

Im having big problems because T is a horizontal force which is something I am not used to. In the vast majority of questions, T is parallel to the slope and the question is therefore a lot easier.

Thanks.
