Three archers each fire four arrows at a target. Joe’s four arrows hit points that are spread around in a region that goes 10 cm above, 10 cm below, 10 cm to the left, and 10 cm to the right of the center of the target. All four of Moe’s arrows hit within 1 cm of a point 20 cm from the center, and Flo’s four arrows hit within 1 cm of the center. The contest judge says that one of the archers is precise but not accurate, another archer is accurate but not precise, and the third archer is both accurate and precise. Which description applies to which archer? Explain.
A surveyor measures the distance across a river that flows straight north by the following method. Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, the surveyor walks d=100 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. She then sights across to the tree and reads that the angle from the baseline to the tree is 35°. How wide is the river?

A physics student performed a projectile experiment. She mentioned that as the initial angle of the projectile increases from 0 to 450, the range also increases (claim 1). Maximum range is attained at 450 (claim 2). As the initial angle increases above 450, the range of the projectile decreases (claim 3). She was able to verify the first claim in her experiment. Your task is to prove claim 1, 2 and 3 mathematically.
