Transcribed Image Text:Projectile Motion: A bomber is flying horizontally at an altitude of 3200 feet with a speed of 400 feet per second when it releases a bomb. A projectile is launched 5 seconds later from a cannon at a site facing the bomber and 5000 feet from the point that was directly beneath the
bomber when the bomb was released, as shown in the figure.

The projectile is to intercept the bomb at an altitude of 1600 feet.
Figure in plane geometry formed by two rays or lines that share a common endpoint, called the vertex. The angle is measured in degrees using a protractor. The different types of angles are acute, obtuse, right, straight, and reflex.
