Question

I need to find the angle of projection for the maximum range.

I have the following information: angle (degrees) and average range (cm). Here are two angles and the range for each.

Angle              Average Range (cm)

10                         146.5

45                         272.5

 

I think that I use this formula but I am not for sure.

R=(V2sin 2 theta)/g

 

Can you help me figure this out so that I can do the rest of the angles and ranges.
