Problem

An arrow leaves a bow with a speed of 25 m ⁣⋅ ⁣s−125\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1}. A target is located 30 m30\,\text{m} horizontally from the archer and 5.0 m5.0\,\text{m} higher than the launch point. Neglect air resistance. Which pair of launch angles will allow the arrow to strike the center of the target? (a) Approximately 24∘24^{\circ} and 66∘66^{\circ} (b) Approximately 24∘24^{\circ} and 75∘75^{\circ} (c) Approximately 15∘15^{\circ} and 75∘75^{\circ} (d) Approximately 30∘30^{\circ} and 60∘60^{\circ}
