Let AB represent a building of height h ...

Let AB represent a building of height h metre with A being its top, B being its bottom. Let A'B' represent a tower of height (h + x) metre `(x gt 0)` with A' being its top and B' being its bottom. Let BB' = d metre. Let the angle of elevation of A' as seen from A be `45^(@)`.
Consider the following statements :
Statement I: `h + x gt d`
Statement II: The angle of depression of B as seen from A' is less than `45^(@)`.
Which one of the following is correct in respect of the above statements ?

A

Both Statement I and Statement II are true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I

B

Both Statement I and Statement II are true but Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I

C

Statement I is true but Statement II is false

D

Statement I is false but Statement II is true
