- A
- B
- C2
- D4

Correct answer: D
-
For a projectile projected with speed at angle :
-
Range,
-
Maximum height,
-
-
Given that range and maximum height are equal:
So,
-
Cancel from both sides:
-
Use :
-
Multiply both sides by :
-
For non-zero projection angle, divide by :
Hence,
-
Therefore, the correct option is: यानी option .
-
Comparison with stored answer:
Stored correct answer =
Our derived answer =
So they agree.
