A tower AB leans towards West making an angle $\mathrm{\alpha }$ with the vertical. The angular elevation of B, the top most point of the tower is $\mathrm{\beta }$ as observed from a point C due East of A at a distance 'd' from A. If the angular elevation of B from a point D due East of C at a distance 2d from C is r, then 2$\tan \left(\mathrm{\alpha }\right)$ can be given as

• $3\cot \left(\mathrm{\beta }\right) - 2\cot \left(\mathrm{\gamma }\right)$

• $3\cot \left(\mathrm{\gamma }\right) - 2\cot \left(\mathrm{\beta }\right)$
