(b)     The maximum height is given by   : 

                                                                     h\ =\ \frac{u^2 \sin^2 \Theta }{2g}

And,     the horizontal range is given by  :

                                                                     R\ =\ \frac{u^2 \sin 2\Theta }{g}

Dividing both, we get : 

                                                                    \frac{h}{R}\ =\ \frac{\tan \Theta }{4}

Hence                                                          \Theta \ =\ \tan^{-1} \left ( \frac{4h }{R} \right )
