The angle of elevation of an object from a point $P$ on the level ground is $\alpha$. Moving $d$ metres on the ground towards the object,the angle of elevation is found to be $\beta$. Then the height (in metres) of the object is

  • A
    $d \tan \alpha$
  • B
    $d \cot \beta$
  • C
    $\frac{d}{\cot \alpha+\cot \beta}$
  • D
    $\frac{d}{\cot \alpha-\cot \beta}$
