    1/2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    So do this, think of an equilateral triangle. A 30-60-90 triangle is just half of an equilateral triangle. If the original side length was x, then the hypotenuse is x, one leg is x/2, and the third, by Pythagorean theorem, is x sqrt3

    Sin is opposite over hypotenuse, so we have (x/2) / x = 1/2
