$A$ ladder rests against a wall making an angle $\alpha$ with the horizontal. The foot of the ladder is pulled away from the wall through a distance $x$,so that it slides a distance $y$ down the wall making an angle $\beta$ with the horizontal. The correct relation is

Let a vertical tower $AB$ of height $2h$ stand on a horizontal ground. From a point $P$ on the ground,a man can see up to height $h$ of the tower with an angle of elevation $2\alpha$. When he moves a distance $d$ from $P$ in the direction of $\overline{AP}$,he can see the top $B$ of the tower with an angle of elevation $\alpha$. If $d=\sqrt{7}h$,then $\tan \alpha$ is equal to:
