We are given

angle(Z)=30

Let's assume angle (Z) as reference angle

so, opposite=XY=4

adjacent=YZ

so, we can use tan formula

[tex] tan(Z)=\frac{XY}{YZ} [/tex]

now, we can plug values

[tex] tan(30)=\frac{4}{YZ} [/tex]

[tex] YZ=\frac{4}{tan(30)} [/tex]

[tex] YZ=4\sqrt{3} [/tex]...............Answer
