Explanation:


\underline{ \underline{ \text{Given : }}}

  • Perpendicular ( P ) = VT = 2
  • Base ( b ) = PT

  • \theta = \tt{60 \degree}


\underline{ \underline{ \text{Solution}}} :


\tt{ \tan(60 \degree) = (perpendicualar)/(base)}


\tt{ √(3) = (2)/(PT)}


\tt{ √(3) \: PT= 2}


\tt{PT = (2)/( √(3)) }


\tt{PT= \boxed{\tt{ \frac{2 √(3) }{{3} }}}}

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ
