Problem

A ball must strike a window that is 5.0 m above the launch point and 30 m away horizontally. If the launch speed is 25 m/s, determine the smaller positive launch angle, in degrees, that will allow the ball to hit the window. Use g=9.8 m/s2g = 9.8\,\text{m/s}^2 and report your answer to the nearest degree.
