The Attempt at a Solution

: [/B]
I would presume I would need to find initial velocity of X and Y separately and then find the magnitude the V the formulas should be V0X=V0cos60 and V0Y=V0sin60
and I need to find V0 of both x and y I just want to know if I'm on the right track I'm quite new to physics
