Solution

The correct option is C 4h1h2
For the same range of projectile fired with velocity u, there are two angle of projection, θ and 90θ with horizontal. Corresponding height
h1=u2sin2θ2gh2=u4sin2(90θ)2g=u2cos2θ2gh1h2=u2sin2θcos2θ4g2
Multiply and divide RHS by 4
h1h2=4u4sin2θcos2θ16g216h1h2=(2u2sinθcosθ)2g216h1h2=[u2sin2θg]2R=u2sin2θg16h1h2=R2R=4h1h2
