An archer shoots an arrow horizontally at a target 17 away. The arrow is aimed directly at the center of the target, but it hits 51 lower.
What was the initial speed of the arrow?
so I know I need to find time and then solve for the distance
so I entered in 17^2 + .51^2 and got 17.0076^2 and tried to solve for distance and time but that did not work...I really have no idea what I am doing. How do you work these types of problems?
