The human eye has an approximate angular resolution of $\theta = 5.8 \times 10^{-4} \text{ rad}$ and a typical photo printer prints a minimum of $300 \text{ dpi}$ (dots per inch, $1 \text{ inch} = 2.54 \text{ cm}$). At what minimal distance $d$ should a printed page be held so that one does not see the individual dots (in $\text{ cm}$)?

  • A
    $20.32$
  • B
    $29.50$
  • C
    $14.59$
  • D
    $6.85$
