Lesson: Projectile Motion at Any Angle Mathematics

Students will be able to

• find the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of a projectile given its speed and angle of projection,
• find the initial speed and angle of projection of a projectile given its initial velocity in vector form,
• solve projectile problems where the projectile is projected with both a horizontal and vertical component of velocity using the equations of motion,
• find the greatest height a particle reaches after it has been projected with a given velocity using the equations of motion.
