General Magnetism Question - ATPL

Please help me with this one.

Q. Z is 45 and the T value is 76 units. The values of dip and force H will be:

a) 36.3 61
b) 53.7 61
c) 59.5 66
d) 61.3 36

The correct answer mentioned is a). But I have trouble figuring out the values. For reference:

tan dip = Z/H

and T = H/cos dip

Taken from Ground Studies for Pilots - Navigation page 48 example 7.


Thanks...
