Question
The question states: At what projection angle will the range of aprojectile be equal to its maximum height?Should you just equate the two equations for range and heightand solve for theta?
i.e. Voy2 / 2g = Vo2 sin 2?
Once I solve for theta, if this is correct, howwould I go about finding the answer quantitatively? There must besome simple connection I'm missing.
Thanks for your help.

Explanation / Answer
The projection angle is 75.96o When (V sin )2/ 2g = Vo2 sin 2 / g From this we get tan = 4 ==> = 75.96o
