Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given situation is shown in the following figure Angle of projection, \(\theta=45^{\circ}\) The elevation angle of the projectile at its highest point as seen from the point of projection is \(\alpha\). \(\therefore \text { In } \triangle P O M \text {, }\)…
