$A$ person is watching from a point $A$ on the ground,which is $x \ m$ away from the base of a building. The height of the building is $y \ m$ and the angle of elevation of the top of the building is found to be $70^\circ$. Then:

  • A
    $x = y$
  • B
    $x < y$
  • C
    $x > y$
  • D
    $x = 2y$
