From the top of a tower,the angles of depression of points $A$ and $B$ in the same direction of the tower are found to be $\theta$ and $(90^\circ - \theta)$ respectively. If $B$ is nearer the tower than $A$ and $AB = a$,then prove that the height of the tower is $\frac{a \tan \theta}{1 - \tan^2 \theta}$.
