In the diagram, \(\triangle ABC\) is a triangle in which \(AB = 4 \text{ cm}\), \(BC = 6 \text{ cm}\) and angle \(\angle ABC = 150^\circ\). The line \(CX\) is perpendicular to the line \(ABX\).
(i) Find the exact length of \(BX\) and show that angle \(CAB = \tan^{-1} \left( \frac{3}{4 + 3\sqrt{3}} \right)\).
(ii) Show that the exact length of \(AC\) is \(\sqrt{52 + 24\sqrt{3}} \text{ cm}\).
