4. (i) Given that \(\cos x = \sqrt { 3 } - 1\), find the value of \(\cos 2 x\) in the form \(a + b \sqrt { 3 }\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are integers.
(ii) Given that $$2 \cos ( y + 30 ) ^ { \circ } = \sqrt { 3 } \sin ( y - 30 ) ^ { \circ }$$ find the value of \(\tan y\) in the form \(k \sqrt { 3 }\) where \(k\) is a rational constant.
