Vertical deflection = V.D = π/4(wr^3/EI).
Horizontal Deflection = H.D = wr^3/2EI.
Their Ratio = V.D/H.D = π/2.

ΔV = Vertical deflection (deflection in the direction of load P) at end A.
ΔH = Horizontal deflection of end A.

Vertical deflection = π/4(wr^3/EI).
OR
Horizontal deflection = (wr^3/2EI).
