If `theta_1` and `theta_2` be the apparent angles of dip observed in two vertical planes at right angles to each other, then the true angle of dip `theta` is given by

A

`cot^(2) theta=cot^(2)theta_(1)+cot^(2) theta_(2)`

B

`tan^(2) theta=tan^(2) theta_(1)+tan^(2) theta_(2)`

C

`cot^(2) theta=cot^(2) theta_(1)-cot^(2) theta_(2)`

D

`tan^2 theta=tan^(2) theta_(1)-tan^(2) theta_(2)`
