The trajectory of a projectile is given ...

The trajectory of a projectile is given by `y=x tantheta-(1)/(2)(gx^(2))/(u^(2)cos^(2)theta)`. This equation can be used for calculating various phenomen such as finding the minimum velocity required to make a stone reach a certain point maximum range for a given projection velocity and the angle of projection required for maximum range. The range of a particle thrown from a tower is define as the distance the root of the tower and the point of landing.
In the previous problem, what should be the corresponding projection angle.

A

`tan^(-1)(1//2)`

B

`tan^(-1)(1//3)`

C

`tan^(-1)2`

D

`tan^(-1)3`
