A ball is launched from the top of an 24.8 m tall building at an angle = 26.0° above horizontal with a speed of 2.85 m/s. What is the ball's horizontal distance (in m) from the building at the time it reaches the ground? Use g = 9.81 m/s?). (These are my steps but I don’t know what to do next. The outcome should be 6.1. I did 2.13*2.562 and got 5.46. Don’t know what I did wrong)
