Let a vertical tower AB have its end A on the level ground. Let C be the mid-point of AB and P be a point on the ground such that AP = 2AB. If ∠ BPC = β , then tan β is equal to
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Sol. 
tan θ = 
, tan α = 
, tan β = y
tan θ = 
⇒ 
= 
4 – y = 2 + 8y
