That makes sense to me. Thanks Lachlan!

Sure. I should have included this originally. target position = w arrow position = c coordinate system = arrow fired at x=0, y=0 in +x, +y direction, cliff at x=20 height y=28.5 At point of intersection, wx = cx and wy = cy We have wx = cx 20 = tv0cos\theta and so tv0 = 20/cos\theta...

Homework Statement An arrow is fired from the ground at the same instant a target is dropped off a 28.5m cliff. The arrow firing device is 20m from the base of the cliff. For any initial velocity of the arrow, the angle it is fired at remains constant (at about 54.9 degrees) in order to hit...
