From any point jet has departed 45° and reaches the height of column (H).
The distance between from any point to the tip of the column is 40m.
This can be calculated using " Angle of Elevation"
Tan(45°) = H/40;
H = 40Tan(45°).
H = 40m.
The distance between from any point to the tip of the column is 40m.

Tan(45°) = H/40;
H = 40Tan(45°).
H = 40m.

Projectile motion.
Range R=u^2sin2θ/g.
Height H=u^2(sinθ)^2/2g,
Here 40m is R/2 so R=80,
i.e.R=u^2sin2(45°)/g ; 80=u^2/g.
H = u^2 (sin45°)^2/2g =40* (1/√2)^2=20m.
Range R=u^2sin2θ/g.
Height H=u^2(sinθ)^2/2g,
Here 40m is R/2 so R=80,
i.e.R=u^2sin2(45°)/g ; 80=u^2/g.
H = u^2 (sin45°)^2/2g =40* (1/√2)^2=20m.

Answer is correct.
Applying Pythagoras theorem, tan 45 = x/40, therefore x = 40 * 1 = 40.
Applying Pythagoras theorem, tan 45 = x/40, therefore x = 40 * 1 = 40.

The path of the particle will be a parabolic so tan θ will not be applied the correct answer from the projectile motion will come to be 20 m.
And I also agree @Mahato.
And I also agree @Mahato.
