Can anyone figure out this problem? I'll give you free passes to the circus if you can...
A rocket is fired at a speed of 94.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 43.0 degrees above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 31.8-m high wall, which is located 40.0 m away. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall?

ceil, i have literally spent an hour on this. on my birthday. that's sad. you can figure it out with sine and cosine, but damned if i can find my graphing calculator.
good luck!
Ceil,
See www.fourthrow.blogspot.com for answer.
I told you I'd help if you needed it. How many passes is this worth?
-s.
It just clears it, with about an inch leeway.
