$A$ tower is situated on a horizontal plane. Two points lie on the line passing through the base of the tower,at distances $a$ and $b$ from the base. The angles of elevation of the top of the tower from these points are $\alpha$ and $90^\circ - \alpha$. If the line segment joining the two points subtends an angle $\theta$ at the top of the tower,find the height of the tower.
