Homework Statement


Rank the vertical component of the initial velocity of each projectile, greatest first.

Homework Equations


n/a

The Attempt at a Solution


I took the sine of the angles, the angles are ranked B>A>C>D you can see this visually as well as looking at the maximums. why isn't this correct?

The online program said i was incorrect. I solved that one, but now i am trying to find which one has the maximum velocity at the landing area
