Problem 33
The range of a projectile: \(R=\frac{v^{2} \sin \theta \cos \theta}{16}\) The range of a projected object (total horizontal distance traveled) is given by the formula shown, where \(v\) is the initial velocity and \(\theta\) is the angle at which it is projected. If an arrow leaves the bow traveling \(175 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\) at an angle of \(45^{\circ}\), what horizontal distance will it travel?

Problem 75
A UFO is sighted on a direct line between the towns of Batesville and Cave City, sitting stationary in the sky. The towns are \(13 \mathrm{mi}\) apart as the crow flies. A student in Batesville calls a friend in Cave City and both take measurements of the angle of elevation: \(35^{\circ}\) from Batesville and \(42^{\circ}\) from Cave City. Suddenly the UFO zips across the sky at a level altitude heading directly for Cave City, then stops and hovers long enough for an additional measurement from Batesville: \(24^{\circ}\). If the UFO was in motion for \(1.2 \mathrm{sec}\), at what average speed (in mph) did it travel?
