The base of a cliff is circular. From the extremities of a diameter of the base,the angles of elevation of the top of the cliff are $30^\circ$ and $60^\circ$. If the height of the cliff is $500 \ m$,then the diameter of the base of the cliff is:

  • A
    $1000 \sqrt{3} \ m$
  • B
    $2000 / \sqrt{3} \ m$
  • C
    $1000 / \sqrt{3} \ m$
  • D
    $2000 \sqrt{2} \ m$
