Human Cannonball In Example 2 of Section 1.2, we found the equation of the path of the human cannonball. At a Washington County Fair in Oregon. David Smith. Jr., The Bullet, was shot from a cannon. As a human cannonball, he reached a height of 70 feet before landing in a net 160 feet from the cannon. In that example we found the equation that describes his path is
Graph this equation using the window
Then zoom in on the curve near the origin until the graph has the appearance of a straight line. Use ITRACEI to find the coordinates of any point on the graph. This point defines an approximate right
