(B) Given that the current $I \propto 	an 	heta$. Taking the derivative with respect to $	heta$, we get $dI = k \sec^2 	heta \, d	heta$. Dividing by $I = k 	an 	heta$, we have $\frac{dI}{I} = \frac{\sec^2 	heta}{	an 	heta} d	heta = \frac{1}{\sin 	heta \cos 	heta} d	heta = \frac{2}{\sin(2	heta)} d	heta$. Given $	heta = 45^{\circ} = \frac{\pi}{4}$ radians, and the error in reading $	heta$ is $1 \%$, so $d	heta = \frac{1}{100} 	imes \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{\pi}{400}$ radians. Substituting these values: $\frac{dI}{I} = \frac{2}{\sin(90^{\circ})} 	imes \frac{\pi}{400} = 2 	imes 1 	imes \frac{\pi}{400} = \frac{\pi}{200}$. To find the percentage error: $\frac{dI}{I} 	imes 100 = \frac{\pi}{200} 	imes 100 = \frac{\pi}{2} \%$. Therefore, the correct option is $(b)$.

Electric current is measured by a tangent galvanometer, where the current is proportional to the tangent of the angle $\theta$ of deflection. If the deflection is read as $45^{\circ}$ and an error of $1 \%$ is made in reading it, then the percentage error in the current is:
