Answer:

The length of side x = 4 units.

Explanation:

Given

The angle Ф is 30°.

The opposite side of angle 30° is 2.

To determine

The length of hypotenuse x = ?

Using the trigonometric ratio

sin Ф = opposite / hypotenuse

substitute Ф = 30°, hypotenuse = x and opposite = 2

sin 30° = 2 / x

1/2 = 2/x ∵ sin 30° = 1/2

x = 2 × 2

x = 4 units

Therefore, the length of side x = 4 units.
