Multiple choice

A spherical balloon of radius a units subtends an angle $\theta$, at an observer's eye. The angle of elevation of centre of the balloon is $\phi$. The height of the centre of the ball is:

  1. $a \sin \theta \,cosec \dfrac{\phi}{2}$
  2. $a \,\sin \dfrac{\phi}{2} \,cosec \phi$
  3. $a \,\sin \phi \,cosec\dfrac{\phi}{2}$
  4. $a \,\sin \dfrac{\phi}{2} \,cosec \theta$
