Two men are on the opposite sides of a tower. They measure the angles of elevation of the top of the tower as $45^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ respectively. If the height of the tower is $40 \, m,$ find the distance between the men.

  • A
    $40 \, m$
  • B
    $40\sqrt{3} \, m$
  • C
    $68.28 \, m$
  • D
    $109.28 \, m$
