hi,

at point B,

T2*cosβ = mg .....(in vertical dirxn).............[1]

T2*sinβ = mg........(in horizontal dirxn)........[2]

dividing these 2 eqns, we get

tanβ = 1 ,.i.e β = ∏/4......

 

now at pont A,

T1*cosα = T2*cosβ + mg........(in vertical dirxn).................[3]

=> T1*cosα = 2T2*cosβ........(using [1])

in horizontal dirxn

T1*sinα = T2*sinβ ........................[4]

 

dividing 4 by 3 ,we get

tanα = 0.5*tanβ

=>  2tanα = tanβ

so correct option is (a)........
