Rain is falling vertically downward with a speed of \(35~\text{m/s}\). Wind starts blowing after some time with a speed of \(12~\text{m/s}\) in East to West direction. The direction in which a boy standing at the place should hold his umbrella is:

1. \(\text{tan}^{-1}\Big(\dfrac{12}{37}\Big)\) with respect to rain
2. \(\text{tan}^{-1}\Big(\dfrac{12}{37}\Big)\) with respect to wind
3. \(\text{tan}^{-1}\Big(\dfrac{12}{35}\Big)\) with respect to rain
4. \(\text{tan}^{-1}\Big(\dfrac{12}{35}\Big)\) with respect to wind
