This is basic maths. 4:3 means and aspect ratio of 1:0.75 or the height is
0.75 times the width.

Therefore, just check that:

if ($height/$width != 0.75) // Image not 4:3 landscape

You seem to imply this is an approx restriction, so just increase your
acceptable range of values, e.g.

$ratio = $height/$width;
if ($ratio < 0.7 || $ratio > 0.8) // Ratio not acceptable.
