The dip at a place is `delta`. For measuring it, the axis of the dip needle is perpendicular to the magnetic meridian. If the axis of the dip needle makes angle `theta` with the magnetic meridian, the apparent dip will be given by tan `delta_1 =`

A

`tan delta cos theta`

B

`tan delta sec theta`

C

`tan delta sin theta`

D

`tan delta cosec theta`.
