$A$ boat is sailing with constant speed towards a man sitting on a tree on the river bank. At some moment,the man measures the angle of depression of the boat as $30^{\circ}$. $10$ minutes later,this angle is measured as $60^{\circ}$. How much longer will the boat now take to reach the bank? (in $min$)

  • A
    $7$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $13$
  • D
