Electric current $(I)$ is measured by a galvanometer, where the current is proportional to the tangent of the angle $( \theta)$ of deflection. If the deflection is read as $45^{\circ}$ and an error of $1\%$ is made in reading the angle, the percentage error in the current is:

  • A
    $\pi \%$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{2} \%$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{3} \%$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{4} \%$
