Answer [True]
Solution
To divide a line segment in the ratio, we need both positive integer.
So, we can be simplified it by multiply both the terms by  .\sqrt{3}
  We obtain  \sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3} : \sqrt{3}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
\Rightarrow 3:1
  So, the required ratio is 3:1
Geometrical construction, is possible to divide a line segment in the ratio 3:1
