A stone projected with a velocity \(u\) at an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal reaches maximum height \(H_1.\) When it is projected with velocity \(u\) at an angle \(\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\theta\right)\) with the horizontal, it reaches maximum height \(H_2.\) The relation between the horizontal range of the projectile \(R\) and \(H_1\) and \(H_2\) is: 

1. \(R=4 \sqrt{H_1 H_2} \) 2. \(R=4\left(H_1-H_2\right) \)
3. \(R=4\left(H_1+H_2\right) \) 4. \(R=\frac{H_1{ }^2}{H_2{ }^2}\)
