  • Aman observes that the angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point P on the ground is alpha .He moves a certain distance towards the foot of the tower and finds that the age of elevation of the top has doubled. He further moves a distance 3/4 of the previous and finds that the ele of elevation is three times that all. The angle is given by :

    A
    `sin alpha =3/4`
    B
    `sin alpha = 3/8`
    C
    `sin alpha = sqrt ((5)/(12))`
