This question bothered me too. I could find an extremely good answer in another forum.

The answer is 1

The given figure is symmetrical so S =1 and t = root 3

Here is another way to solve the problem. Hope this will help. Couldn't get my head around the Pythagorus Theorem. Would appreciate if somebody can write clear steps too.
