Correct Answer: $1:\sqrt3$
Solution : Given: $ABC$ is a right-angled triangle with $\angle BAC=90°$ and $\angle ACB=60°$. Let the hypotenuse $BC$ of the triangle be $2r$ units. We know, The circumradius of a right-angled triangle is half of its hypotenuse. So, the circumradius = $\frac{2r}{2}=r$ units Now, $\sin60°=\frac{AB}{BC}$ ⇒ $\frac{\sqrt3}{2}=\frac{AB}{BC}$ ⇒ $BC:AB=2:\sqrt3$ ⇒ $2r:AB=2:\sqrt3$ ⇒ $r:AB=1:\sqrt3$ Hence, the ratio of the circumradius of the triangle to the side $AB$ is $1:\sqrt3$.
