Question

A projectile is shot from ground level at 100 ft/s at a launch angle of θ that is between θ and π /2. Assume that the projectile is acted on by gravity, but not air resistance. Then, in a simple projectile-motion model it can be shown that the projectile lands at a distance R(θ) = 625 sinθcosθ ft from the launch point. What is the rate of change of the range with respect to the launch angle? For what angles does the range increase/decrease with increasing launch angle? What angle provides the maximum range, and what is that maximum range?

100
ft/s 0
R(e)
The range of the projectile is
R(0).
