A ball is hit horizontally at a height of 1.2 m and travels a horizontal distance of 5.0 m before reaching the ground. The ball is at rest when hit. Calculate the initial horizontal velocity given to the ball when it was hit.

In order to find the velocity, we need to know the distance covered by the ball in a known length of time. We are given the distance, 5.0 m, therefore we need to compute the time of flight of the ball. Th...

Find the general solution, in degrees, of the equation 2sin(3x+45°)=1. Use your general solution to find the solution of 2sin(3x+45°)=1 that is closest to 200 °.

The first thing to do when we are facing a trigonometry problem is to to draw the sine and cosine diagram on the unit circle. That takes very little time to do and is incredibly helpful to visualize the p...
