From a point on the level ground,the angle of elevation of the top of a pole is $30^{\circ}$. On moving $20 \ m$ nearer to the pole,the angle of elevation becomes $45^{\circ}$. The height of the pole (in metres) is:

  • A
    $10(\sqrt{3}-1)$
  • B
    $10(\sqrt{3}+1)$
  • C
    $15$
  • D
    $20$
