$A$ particle aimed at a target,projected with an angle $15^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,is short of the target by $10 \ m$. If projected with an angle of $45^{\circ}$,it is away from the target by $15 \ m$. Then the angle of projection to hit the target is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{10}\right)$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{7}{10}\right)$
