1. A ball is shot into the air with a speed of 25 m/s at a 50° angle with the horizontal. How high does the ball go above the ground?

|       | \( x \) | \( y \) |
|-------|---------|---------|
| \( \Delta x \) |         |         |
| \( v_i \)      |         |         |
| \( v_f \)      |         |         |
| \( a \)        |         |         |
| \( \Delta t \) |         |         |

**Diagram Explanation:**

- To the right of the text, there is a simple diagram illustrating the problem. It shows a ball being launched at an angle of 50° with an initial velocity (\( v_i \)) of 25 m/s. The trajectory angle is depicted with an arrow pointing upwards and to the right from the launch point, forming a 50° angle with the horizontal line.
