$A$ particle of mass $m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$ and charge $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$ enters a region of uniform magnetic field of strength $B = 1 \, T$ along the direction shown in the figure. The speed of the particle is $v = 10^7 \, m/s$. The magnetic field is directed along the inward normal to the plane of the paper. The particle enters the field at $C$ and leaves at $D$. Then the angle $\theta$ must be :-
