A lighthouse has two guiding lights: one at the very top and another slightly below it. From a point 300 meters away from the base of the lighthouse on the shore, the angle of elevation to the top light is 60∘60^\circ, and to the second light is 45∘45^\circ. Select the correct distance between the lights. a. A 300(3−1)300(\sqrt{3} - 1) b. B 3003−1\frac{300}{\sqrt{3} - 1} c. C 3003+1\frac{300}{\sqrt{3} + 1} d. D 300(3+1)300(\sqrt{3} + 1)
