Answer:


(4)/(3)
√(3)

Explanation:

the ratio of sides of a 30-60-90° triangle, respectively, are 1 :
√(3) : 2

we can solve for 'x' using this proportion:

x/4 = 1/
√(3)

now cross-multiply:


√(3)x = 4

x = 4/
√(3)

we don't want to leave a radical in the denominator so we can multiply numerator and denominator by
√(3) to get:

4
√(3) / 3 or
(4)/(3)
√(3)
