In this case we will have to use trig functions.
sin or cos or tan
soh cah toa
so sin(60) = side length÷2√3
0.866 = side length
÷ 2√3
side length = 0.866*2√3 = 3

Answer:

(C) 3

Explanation:

From the given information, it is given that ∠ACB=60°, ∠BAC=30° and AC=
2√(3).

Now, using the trigonometry, we have


(AB)/(AC)=sin60^(\circ)

Substituting the given values, we have


(AB)/(2√(3))=sin60^(\circ)


(AB)/(2√(3))={(√(3))/(2)}


AB=3

Therefore, the length of the side opposite to the angle 60° is 3.

Hence, option C is correct.
