A man starts walking in south direction ...

A man starts walking in south direction from point P (as shown in figure) & reaches point `Q(PQ = 4m)`, then the moves towards east direction & reaches at point `R(QR = 3m)`. Now he moves towards north direction & reaches at points `S(RS = 10m)` & finally he moves towards east direction & reaches at point `T(ST = Xm)`. On the basis of above information, answer the following questions :

`tan theta` is-

A

`(4)/(3)`

B

`-(4)/(3)`

C

`(3)/(4)`

D

`-(3)/(4)`
